BUY THIS COMPLETE TITLE HERE: https://goo.gl/1ev29pHow to Use This BookBefore using any estimate in this book, youshould understand one important point about estimating electrical construction costs. Estimating is anart, not a science. There’s no estimate that fits allwork. The manhour estimates in this book will beaccurate for many jobs, but remember that no twojobs are identical. And no two crews complete alltasks in exactly the same amount of time. That’s whyelectrical cost estimating requires exercising goodjudgment. Every estimate has to be custom-made forthe specific job, crew and contractor. No estimatingreference, computerized cost estimating system orestimating service can take into consideration all thevariables that make each job unique.'18If your hourly labor cost is much lower or higher,costs of installation can be expected to be proportionately lower or higher than the installation costs listedin this book. If your total hourly labor cost is 25 percent less, for example, reduce the labor figures in thecost tables by 25 percent to find your local cost.The Craft@Hrs column shows the recommendedcrew and manhours per unit for installation. Forexample, L2 in the Craft@Hrs column means thatwe recommend a crew of two electricians. L1 meansthat a crew of one electrician is recommended.Costs in the Labor Cost column are the result of multiplying the manhours per unit by the rate of 40.04per hour.For example, if the Craft@Hrs column showsL2@.250, the Labor Cost column will show 10.01.That’s .250 manhours multiplied by 40.04 per manhour and rounded to the nearest penny.Divide the manhours per unit into 8 to find thenumber of units one electrician can install in one 8hour day: 8 divided by .250 equals 32 units per day.Multiply that amount by the number of crew membersto find the number of units the crew is likely to installin an 8-hour day. For example, if the crew is two electricians, multiply 32 by 2 to find that the crew can beexpected to install 64 units in an 8-hour day.Some tasks require less labor under certain conditions. For example, when conduit is run in groups,less labor is required for each 100 linear feet. It’s theestimator’s responsibility to identify conditions likelyto require more or less labor than the standard forthe type of work being estimated.This book lists both the labor cost per installedunit and the manhours required for installation.Manhours are listed in hundredths of an hour ratherthan minutes, making it easier to calculate units.PLThis book isn’t meant to replace well-informeddecisions. But when supplemented with an estimator’s professional evaluation, the figures in this manual will be a good aid in developing a reliable cost ofelectrical systems.Medicare), and typical nontaxable fringe benefitssuch as medical insurance.EThis manual is a guide to the cost of installingelectrical work in buildings. It lists costs to the electrical subcontractor for a wide variety of electrical work.SAMNational Estimator, aneasy-to-use estimating program with all the costestimates in this book.

Ifwaste of materials or breakage is expected to exceed3 to 5 percent of the materials used on the job,include a separate allowance for excessive waste.Material delivery cost to the job site isn’t includedin this book. When delivery cost is significant andcan be identified, add that cost to these figures.All Tables Assume “Good” ConditionsThis means that there are few or no unusual conditions to delay production. Conditions are goodwhen work is performed during usual working hoursin relatively clean surroundings and in readily accessible areas not over 12 feet above the finish floor.The temperature is between 50 and 85 degrees F.Electricians are working no more than 8 hours a day,5 days a week.Good conditions require that all tools and materials be available on the job site when needed. Tools,including power tools, are assumed to be in goodworking order. Where power tools are appropriate,it’s assumed that temporary power is provided. Addthe cost of temporary power when it’s furnished atyour expense.PLPlease note that the cost of some electrical materials is highly volatile. For example, copper wireprices have been known to fluctuate 10 percent ormore in one month. There’s no reliable way to forecast price movements like this. If you’re bidding on aproject that has a quantity of copper products, youmay want to add a qualification to your bid proposalwhich would allow you to pass on a pricing increase(or decrease), based upon the actual materials pricing at the time of purchase. This way, you can usethe current price quoted at the time of your bid,but still leave the door open to any major pricingfluctuations.ing costs, freight costs not absorbed by the supplier,utility company charges for installation and service,special insurance and bonds, power equipmentother than small tools, mobilization to remote sites,demobilization, nonproductive labor, and nonworkingsupervisors. If these costs are significant and can bedetermined, add them to your estimate. If not, youshould exclude them and specify clearly that they’renot a part of your bid.Ematerial retailers and for good reason. Most electrical contractors don’t buy from big box retailers.They buy from specialized electrical material dealerswho offer the selection, service and terms that electrical contractors expect. Big box retailers stock limited quantities, no more than a few hundred electricalSKUs, specialize in commodity-grade merchandiseand are generally not set up to meet the needs ofprofessional electrical contractors.MAdd Sales TaxProper supervision makes a big difference in laborproductivity. The tables assume there is adequatesupervision but make no allowance for nonproductivelabor — supervisors who direct but do no installation.If you plan to have nonproductive supervision on thejob, add that cost to the figures in this manual.SANo state or local sales tax is included in materialprices listed here. Sales tax varies from area to areaand may not be applicable on purchases for sometypes of projects. Add at the appropriate rate whensales tax is charged on materials bought for the job.Add Overhead and ProfitTo complete the estimate, add your overhead andexpected profit.
