What would an average comercial grade receptacle price be in your area?? This is using MC cable steel boxes 5/8 raised adaptors and caddy stud bracket new work. This is using MC cable steel deep finished gem boxes and madison clips or old workclips for old work fishing down existing walls. I am getting very wide swings around here lately. Lets say for a 3000 sq foot office building middle to high end.

A REAL commercial grade receptacle costs $6-7 the last time I checked - HBL5262 or HBL5362. Even the P&S ones that are supposedly commercial but break easily cost more than $1.

Is it less than 10' high'? What if you have to wire 30 receptacles with mc 12 2 commercial grade receptacles but drop ceiling would be 11' high, but the ceilng where you have to anchor your steel wire is 17' high and the ceiling is a concrete, how much would be the price now?

Higher ceiling is more expensive of course but I was told I was way too high on 85 per new work and 125 per old work fished down walls insulated with finished gems. 9 foot ceiling. All 20 amp commercial grade self grounding. cooper. could I be more specific??

Oh, I get what you're asking now. If I was called to a commercial site to install one receptacle in a conference room or office or similar - standard height ceiling & sheetrock walls - say about 50 feet of 12-2 MC, 1 OWB, 1 CR20 (1.28 per, last week), and a metal single gang plate, tied into a local circuit.... it's surely going to cost more than $125. I wouldn't even show up for that much. It would likely cost them about $300. But if I was adding six receptacles in the same manner, in the same office area, it's surely not going to cost them $1800. Your $125 each is probably still too low however.

Yes the sad part is everyone wants you to share thier knowledge with them however a simple question cannot be answered here it makes me less open to share. I will change my avatar to a clam. Thanks for answering though. How about 25 old work and 25 new work??
