Electrician Service Call, $980 to Repair a Broken Electrical Line, with 2 Light Fixtures, Thoughts?

What happens here

After all wiring and fixture installations are complete, the electrician returns to the electrical panel. The circuit breaker that was previously turned off is now flipped back on to restore power to the repaired line. Finally, light bulbs are screwed into the newly installed keyless fixtures, and the light switch is activated to test the functionality of the new lighting. The successful illumination of the lights confirms the repair and installation are complete and functional.

Goal: Verify the functionality and safety of the electrical repair.

Tools and materials

  • Circuit Breaker — Re-energizing the electrical line
  • Electrical Panel — Restoring power to the circuit
  • Light Bulbs — Providing illumination in the new fixtures
  • Light Switch — Controlling the new lights

What they say

amp breaker. So this wire is good. Lighting is usually 15 amps. I then install a new keyless light fixture so the customer can have light in his basement. The lights were originally somewhere else but the customer wanted them here cuz he was moving some shelving. But repair complete. Customer was satisfied. Took about 3 hours. I go back to my work van. On to the next call. Peace.
