How much does an electrician cost on average?

The cost of an electrician depends on the type of work. Small jobs, such as installing a socket, are relatively inexpensive, while larger installations or modifications are more expensive.

On average, the cost of an electrician ranges between €65 and €110 per hour. For larger projects, a total price is often agreed upon, depending on the number of connections and work involved.

What do the costs depend on?

The final price of electrical work is determined by several factors:

Type of activities

A simple installation costs less than replacing a fuse box or a complete electrical renovation.

Number of connections

The more sockets, switches, or light points, the higher the costs.

Complexity

Work such as modifying the meter cupboard or new cabling is more complex and expensive.

Material usage

Additional materials such as cables, switches, or distribution boards increase the price.

State of the installation

Old or unsafe installations may require additional work.

Emergency or breakdown

For emergency jobs or breakdowns, the costs are often higher.

Region

In large cities, rates are often higher than in other regions.
