    Cost to wire a shop?

    Any idea what kinda price I'm looking at? Electricity is stubbed out to the shop. Needs a breaker box. Shop is 30x40 with a 20x40 porch. I have the lights. Need it wired in conduit, 7 lights total hung with switch 4 inside 3 outside and 5 plugs.

    Also if there is electricians close to winnie that wants to give me a price let me know.

          Yes why? One on each wall and one at the work bench.

            I'd double that, at minimum.
            If it were mine I'd have a receptacle at least every 10 feet.
            It shouldn't increase the price that much and you'll appreciate the convenience in the long run.

              What was said above, more and more plugs

                X2 can never have too many plugs. They fill up quick.

                  That is good advice. Triple the amount you think you'll need. Then add four.

                    My shop is 20x20. I have two 110v on each wall and four up above on the purlins. A
                    220v by the door. Ran me about $800 a few years ago.

                      Does it need to be in conduit? I just did my barn, a buddy and myself. Went to Lowes and got everything and did it our selves for maybe $250. Put my wire in PVC.

                        We charge $120.00 hr. for a Journeyman and apprentice. $1,850 isn't bad.
