Automatic Cost Estimate for Electrical Installation

Generate an automatic electrical installation cost estimate from the project BOM. Use reference prices, custom items, VAT totals, PDF and CSV export.

From floor plan to distribution board

Electro Planner combines free online electrical installation design with professional distribution board visualization and electrical planning on building floor plans.

Visualize the distribution board on DIN rails with circuit labels and protection hierarchy.

Plan sockets, lighting, switches, and electrical points directly on a house or apartment floor plan.

Export PDF documentation with circuit lists, board schematic, and bill of materials.

BOM-based estimate

The estimate is generated from the bill of materials built from the distribution board and floor plan. It can use catalog or TIM reference prices when available, and you can adjust offer prices, quantities, VAT, and custom items.

Reference and offer prices

Reference prices appear only when catalog or TIM data is available, and each row can be adjusted with your own offer or customer price.

VAT and custom rows

Add custom rows for labor, transport or extra materials, then review net, VAT and gross totals before sharing the estimate.

PDF and CSV export

Yes. Project documentation can be exported as PDF, while the cost estimate can be exported to PDF or CSV with selectable columns.

Automatic cost estimate from the electrical project BOM

Electro Planner connects electrical design with budgeting. After you plan circuits, the distribution board and floor-plan elements, the application can create a structured bill of materials and turn it into an editable cost estimate.

This is useful before requesting supplier prices or contractor quotes. Instead of preparing a spreadsheet from scratch, you start with quantities already coming from the project. For broader budget context, compare the estimate with the electrical installation cost guide.

The estimate can include modular apparatus, accessories, cabling, enclosure items and custom rows. Reference prices from catalog or TIM data are used only when available, and every price should be verified before purchase or a final quote.

From BOM to estimate

Generate the estimate from the current BOM, review grouped rows, edit offer prices or quantities, set VAT, exclude items when needed and export PDF or CSV. The result is a practical budget view, not a substitute for a formal contractor quote.

What to verify before using the numbers

Supplier availability, discounts, delivery, labor, local taxes and final technical decisions can change the real cost. Treat Electro Planner as a planning and documentation tool and confirm final values with a qualified professional or supplier.
