ᐅ Additional Costs for Electrical Outlets and Network Connections

Hello everyone,

we are buying a 4-room apartment with 110 m² (1,184 sq ft) from a developer and naturally want to increase the number of standard electrical outlets (who can manage with the usual amount anyway?!).
The electrician’s quote is still pending, but I would like to get some rough price estimates for comparison.
What might an additional double electrical outlet (branded, but without gold plating) including some wiring and installation typically cost?

I also have no idea about a star topology network wiring (Cat7) with five outlets (Cat6a) converging in the utility room. Of course, it depends on cable length, but the apartment isn’t huge...

I would appreciate any estimates or insights.

22 per junction box. 41 per TV outlet, 44 per twilight switch, 24 per telephone socket, 22 per light switch. All prices are net, including installation. Karsten
We do not use network plugs. There is Wi-Fi.

Do you get the same refund if you use one less can?

Of course not

These are not property developer prices, but those of a relatively affordable general contractor. However, this is not comparable at all to the situation of the original poster.

The original poster is buying an apartment from a property developer:

And in that case, the rules about how far the customer can be pushed after signing apply.

Are you handling this through the developer, or possibly directly with the electrician?

Work directly with the electrician. Otherwise, they will overcharge you. Karsten

It is not possible to deal directly with the electrician, since they can only come in after completion, when all the walls are closed up.
