What to check for this job

A consumer-unit replacement has a call-out, several hours of labour, supplied equipment and a separate certification line. The customer needs to recognise the property and understand what each charge covers.

See the electricians workflow in Experi →
  • Site address and work date
  • Labour hours or agreed fixed price
  • Materials and quantities supplied
  • Certificate reference only where actually issued

Watch out: Do not copy an example accreditation, certificate number or compliance statement onto a real job. Check any VAT or CIS treatment separately for the actual supply.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I include on an electrician invoice?

Include call-out charges, labor hours and rates, materials used, certification references (EIC/MWC), your registration number (NICEIC/NAPIT), and payment terms. Clear itemization helps clients understand costs and speeds up payment.

Do I need to charge VAT on electrical work?

You only need to charge VAT if you're VAT registered (turnover over £90,000). If registered, you must charge 20% VAT and include your VAT number on all invoices.

How should I invoice for emergency call-outs?

Itemize the call-out charge separately from labor and materials. Typical charges range from £50-£150 depending on time of day. Make this clear on your invoice so clients understand the breakdown.
