I know it largely depends on the area other factors but I'm trying to get an educated guess on the cost to install a 60A sub panel in a detached garage. I'm in central MA.
We had solar installed on the garage and while they had the trench dug I paid them a couple extra bucks to run an additional 1.5" PVC conduit for the purpose of installing a sub panel in the garage one day.
I would do this myself but in my town homeowners aren't allowed to touch electricity. I plan to pull a permit so I need to play be the rules.
Here are the details:

Here are the details:
- Existing 200A panel in the basement. Plenty of available space.
- 40 feet from the 200A panel to the other side of the basement. No major obstacles. Conduit can run along basement ceiling.
- 25 feet of PVC in the trench including the vertical runs.
- A 3 foot vertical run from the end of the trench to the new 60A panel.
- Would like the electrician to install a 120V and 240V outlet at the 60A panel.
