I got a call today from a repeat customer who was lookiing for a budget number for the install of an 80kw generator. I know there is lots of variabels but for an install price not including transfer switch as I asume this will be ordered with genset. I am guessing 15 -20,000? What do you think. I installed one close to this size for less but want to give a safe number. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Dave

Are you supplying the generator
I'm involved with a bunch of gen installs, some 80kw and some 100's. I'm not providing the gens or the ATS, and I'm doing electrical only - no pad work, no trenching or saw-cutting. The lowest priced install is just under $7K. The costliest one is about $23K. I guess that may not be of much help to you....
No Just labor and material for install probaly not even the transfer switch. Thanks to everyone who answered.
80kw genny and no transfer switch?
I was under the impression the generator and transfer switch was being supplied buy the owner.

I would say that way more info is needed. What kind of distances and conditions are involved? I am assuming 3-phase, but we are getting ready to do a 70kw on a residence, so I am not sure. We have priced those installs from about 5k to 20k-plus.
