We used Galaxy Electric, very reasonable

:BigApplause:
I'm thinking on going that route this fall. Can you share on how much that was? My garage is blocked so I assume they will have to put in conduit which is really no big deal looks wise to me. PM if you want.....

I’ll look for the invoice - keep in mind my costs also included running a 220v/30a to the dryer (adjacent to the garage) since my wife didn’t like/want the gas dryer as opposed to what we brought with us.

Ok I found it — the 50a/220v for hybrid car use was $450 including up to 25 feet from breaker box. The other line for the dryer was $350. You’d still have to have whatever the pigtail for the specific vehicle but should otherwise be ready to go.

I was pleased with Lenhart and they also came out for free estimate.

Cost of having a extra outlet installed in the garage??
 

Cost of having a extra outlet installed in the garage?? Depends on answers to a few questions??
1.) what will you be using this outlet for? General use or a specific use like plugging in
a golf cart??
2.) General use could be a 15 / 20 amp breaker and using #12 gauge wire??
3.) Location of the outlet? I wanted an easy to get to outlet for general use like
plugging in a vacuum cleaner, a portable clip on battery charger, a power tool, etc.
I installed an extra outlet directly under my breaker panel. Easy install, easily
accessible to use.
4.) If you want to add several outlets or just one outlet. Obviously 1 outlet is
cheaper to install then adding 3 or 4 and less labor.
5.) In my garage there were 2 extra outlets. 1 on each side of the garage. I also have
very large build in cabinets on one side where one of the outlets was inside a
cabinet. Thats why I added a extra outlet under the circuit breaker panel.
6.) In New York, #12 wire is required for outlets using a 15 or 20 amp
breaker. Do Not piggy back a breaker and Do Not Add a outlet to a lighting circuit.
If you require an Electrician for your job hire only a licensed and insured Electrician
NOT A HANDY MAN. Electrical codes change and a licensed electrician will know
of a changes.
Best of Luck

I can't recommend anyone, I did it myself. pretty easy and effortless. Probably the worst part is figuring out why they labeled the electric box the way they did..... and then cussing about how they wired the house.... I've done 7 outlets so far aroubnd the house, fans, etc.... and still amazed (sarcasm) at what they did LOL .

$809 for a 240V 50 Amp outlet in my garage - Pikes

We've used Jewell Electric for many years. Very reliable and does fine work. His phone # is 352-751-1613.

I used Lenhart; the cost was $200. The 240V outlet was installed just below the circuit panel inside the garage.

I charge my Tesla Model X.

Did you apply for permits and have your work inspected?
