House Electrical Wiring & Points Cost Calculator Nepal

Estimate house wiring cost from light, socket, fan and heavy-appliance point counts with editable per-point rates, distribution board, earthing and fittings allowance.

Example rates only — replace with local quotes

Per-point rates cover conduit, wire, box, switch plate and labour at typical Kathmandu valley levels. Copper brand, wire gauge, concealed versus surface conduit, and imported switch ranges (Schneider, Legrand, ABB) change the total substantially. Whole-house electrical commonly lands somewhere around NPR 150–500 per sq. ft. depending on fixture choice—check where your result sits in that band.

Planning estimate only—not a quotation and not an electrical design. Load calculation, cable sizing, protection coordination, inverter or solar tie-in, NEA connection charges, lightning protection and any statutory inspection must be done by a licensed electrical engineer or contractor.

What this estimate assumes

How house wiring is usually priced in Nepal

  • A "point" is one switch-controlled outlet: the conduit, wire, box, plate and labour from the distribution board to that outlet.
  • The suggested counts are a density starting point (roughly one light point per 45 sq. ft.). Walk your plan room by room and override them.
  • Heavy points carry a higher rate because they need larger cable, a dedicated MCB and often a separate run from the board.
  • The fittings allowance is where budgets swing most: local switches and lights sit near the low end, imported ranges near the high end.

Formulas used

  • Wiring = Σ (points of each type × rate for that type)
  • Fittings = wiring × allowance%
  • Subtotal = wiring + distribution board + earthing + fittings
  • Total = subtotal × (1 + contingency%)

Yes. The Electrical Wiring Cost works in your browser without an account. You can install GharNaksa when you want to track the real project costs, payments and progress.

Can I use this result as a final quotation or professional approval?

No. It is a planning estimate based on the information you enter. Verify rates, quantities, drawings, local requirements and contract terms with the appropriate qualified professional before making a commitment.

How do I track the estimate during construction?

Use GharNaksa to record actual material deliveries, labor, payments, bills and site photos. Comparing the estimate with a dated site record helps reveal cost differences early.
