Houston Nema 14-50 50 amp installation cost.

Just received a quote from Mr Electric (SolarCity recommended Houston installer). My panel is on the other side of the house from the garage. The run is 100-150'. Their bid came in at $2,200.00. Has anyone used anybody else? Any recommendations? Thanks.

My installation was around $600 with Mr Electric - but it was a very short run, next to the breaker box - and this includes both a 10-50 and future installation of the HPWC.

I had a 6-50 installed about 1 foot away from the breaker box. It also included prep for the HPWC. Total cost $170.

I had my 14-50 installed for about $125 or so.

Who did ya'll use? Anyone you'd recommend (besides Mr. Electric)?

I recommend a great electrician for tesla owners in Houston. He installed a new breaker amd plug and did it in a few hours. I have known him for 5 years and is a great guy. Cheikh Gakou call him on 832-659-3442 or email gakoucheikh@yahoo.com

Your costs are going to vary based on distance away from the breaker panel assuming you have space in your panel. If they have to pull new wire then they also have to consider obstructions they have to dig under like concrete or additional safety precautions or looks if above ground.

Having said that ANY decent and licensed electrician can be used. No offense intended to Mr. Electric, but I'd go with a local electrician who doesn't need to know you just laid out 75-100k for your car. I had my electrician look at my 100+ ft pull through concrete that was about to get demo'd for a house remodel. He said don't bother but expected about $750-1000.

Your parts for most jobs are going to be 6 gauge 4-wire(2 hot, neutral, ground) wire and pipe for the run, a socket box, the 14-50 plug, a socket box cover, 50A breaker. Wire was something like this for 100ft pull:
