The 2023 BNi Electrical Costbook puts right at your fingertips up-to-date material costs, labor costs and equipment rental costs for every aspect of electrical work ... power distribution, network communications, lighting and more.

Today's inflation, combined with nasty supply chain snarls and ever-increasing prevailing wage rates can make accurate estimating all but impossible.  Especially when you consider that the cost of some items is actually going down!

How to make sense of it all?  The 2023 BNi Electrical Costbook.  That's how.

With it you can confidently estimate the cost of all types of electrical projects involving new construction and renovations in both commercial and residential buildings.

It puts at your fingertips accurate and up-to-date material and labor costs for thousands of cost items, based on the latest national averages and standard labor productivity rates.

What's more, the 2023 BNi Electrical Costbook includes a greatly expanded set of over 600 regional cost modifiers for adjusting your estimate to your local conditions.

This new Costbook features:

• Material costs for thousands of items based on current national averages (including allowances for transport, handling and storage)
