I need to get this done at a new location in WA. This was a quote from my first electrician. The outlets are installed within 10-15 feet from the breaker box. Electrician provides conduits, wiring, breakers and labor. I bought the outlets and outlet boxes myself

Job Description: $7,350.00 + sales tax = $8000

Provide labor and materials to install (10) dedicated 50 amp circuits to the upstairs space from the
panel to dedicated outlets. All work will be in 3/4 inch and 1/2 EMT surface mounted to the sheet
rock. Owner will provide the outlets.

has anyone done something similar at this price ? or should i continue shopping around ? $8000 seems a tad high considering parts would not even reach $500

Thanks!!

No, I am an electrician and charge 120 an hour, thats way to much.
