Homes less than 10 years old will have a modern type breaker box. As far as cost goes, that is a good thing if an upgrade becomes necessary. In this type of house, the breaker box will be a minimum of 100 amps, and probably have enough available open circuits to allow upgrading without needing an entirely new panel. This type of upgrade can usually be completed between $363 and $1004.
A basic circuit breaker costs anywhere from $50-$75 and the standard travel fee is around $30 which already puts the cost of the project at roughly $90. The rest of the cost is determined by the qualifications of the Electrician and how much they charge per hour.An apprentice Electrician generally charges around $30/hour while Journeyman Electricians often charge upwards of $45/hour.he rest of the cost is determined by the qualifications of the Electrician and how much they charge per hour.
