Electrician Invoice Template

An electrician invoice template is shaped by the work: a list of materials that went into the install or repair, the labour that put them in safely, and the compliance details that prove the work was done to code. A vague invoice that bundles everything into a single figure is the fastest way to a dispute, especially when the customer wants to know why a circuit took longer than expected or why a particular breaker cost what it did. The free electrician invoice generator above splits the bill into parts and labour lines the way an electrical bill should, applies the right tax, and downloads a clean PDF you can email before you leave site. No signup, no watermark, nothing to install.

Typical line items on an electrician invoice

Structure the invoice the way the job unfolded: the parts you supplied, the labour that installed them, and any callout or compliance fee. Use the list below as a starting point and adjust to your own pricing.

• Cabling and wiring: TPS, flex, SWA, data cable. Bill per metre and include the core count and cross-section.
• Conduit and trunking: Per metre or per length, with fittings listed separately if material.
• Switches and sockets: Single, double, USB-combined, or smart. Itemise by type and quantity.
• Breakers and distribution: MCBs, RCBOs, RCDs, consumer units. These are usually the larger material costs — list each.
• Fixtures and luminaires: Downlights, pendants, outdoor fittings. Bill at cost-plus or at retail, but be consistent.
• Labour — callout: A flat fee for the first hour or the visit, including travel.
• Labour — hourly: Additional time at your standard rate, with a note on what the time covered.
• Certification and testing: Electrical installation certificates, minor works forms, or PAT testing certificates — bill as a separate line so the compliance piece is visible.

Compliance and certification on the invoice

Electrical work usually has a compliance layer that other trades do not. Depending on the work and your jurisdiction, you may need to issue an electrical installation certificate, a minor works certificate, or a periodic inspection report. Reference the certificate numbers on the invoice — and, where required, attach the certificate itself — so the customer has a single document trail covering both payment and compliance. If your licence number is required on invoices, add it in the Your Business section next to your address.
