This is an estimate based on average 2026 prices. Actual costs may vary. Always request multiple quotes for an exact price.
Cost factors
The total cost usually consists of:
- New electrical panel and components: 30-45% of the total
- Electrician labor costs: 40-55% of the total
- Residual current devices and circuit breakers: 10-15% of the total
- Meter cupboard adjustments and wiring: 5-15% of the total
These percentages can vary depending on the situation, number of circuits, and whether electrical panel area changes are required.
Why do prices vary?
- Number of circuits: A simple box with 4 circuits is considerably cheaper than an extended box with 12 or more circuits. More circuits means more breakers and more installation time.
- Single-phase to three-phase upgrade: Upgrading from a single-phase to a three-phase connection (for a charging station or heat pump) also requires changes by the grid operator and costs extra.
- Component brand quality: Brands such as Hager, Eaton, or Schneider Electric are more durable but more expensive than lesser-known manufacturers. A reliable box saves money in the long run.
- Condition of the existing installation: If the wiring is outdated or does not meet the standard, additional work may be needed that increases the total cost.
