Electrician Invoice Template

An electrician invoice documents electrical work, including labor hours, wire and fixtures, permit fees, and safety inspections. Create professional electrical contractor invoices instantly with NetInvoice's free template.

Why this invoice template matters

Electrical work requires detailed documentation for both customer understanding and code compliance. A proper invoice shows what circuits were worked on, which materials meet code, and whether permits were pulled. This protects you legally and helps customers see the value in your licensed expertise. Good invoicing also separates billable diagnostic time from actual repair work, preventing disputes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do electricians charge for estimates?

Many electricians charge a diagnostic or trip fee ($75-$150) that applies toward the repair if you proceed. This covers the time spent identifying the problem.

Should electrical invoices include permit costs?

Yes, always pass permit and inspection fees to the customer as separate line items. This shows transparency and ensures you're pulling proper permits.

How do electricians price new installations vs repairs?

Repairs are usually hourly ($85-$125/hr) plus materials. New installations are often quoted as fixed price based on scope, but should still break down labor and materials on the invoice.
