Electrical Budget Planner
This electrical budget planner displays the minimum and maximum amounts you enter; ask a licensed contractor for a written quote for your property.
Enter your budget
Your switchboard is the home's electrical distribution panel. A safety switch, also called a residual current device (RCD), cuts power when it detects a current leak; a licensed electrician can confirm which circuits are protected.
Your budget range
Your own budget input, not a price estimate. Ask the contractor for a written quote.
Your own budget inputs. Compare the actual scope and quote directly with the provider.
How this is calculated
What this is: a record of the budget range you enter. No market rates or illustrative prices are supplied.
How the range is worked out: the tool formats your two inputs in Australian dollars. Compare the scope and price directly with the contractor.
Safety and licensing: this tool is for early budgeting only. Electrical work must be scoped and priced for the property by a suitably licensed contractor. You can check Queensland licensing information through WorkSafe Queensland.
Assumptions and exclusions: the inputs are your budget, not a per-item calculation. The tool does not account for unusual access, existing wiring faults found once work starts, or council/body-corporate requirements. It ignores site-specific complications an on-site assessment would catch - the electrical contractor confirms the final scope and price before starting.
