Find an electrician in Luxembourg

Verify the autorisation d'établissement

Any legitimate electrician operating in Luxembourg holds an autorisation d'établissement from the Chambre des Métiers. Ask for the number and check it against the public CDM register before signing anything.

If the firm cannot produce the autorisation number or tries to invoice under a personal name without company details, stop and find another provider.

Check insurance and workmanship guarantee

Confirm the electrician carries public liability and, for structural work, ten-year decennial cover. A clear written workmanship guarantee (typically 2 years on labour, manufacturer terms on parts) should be on the quote.

No insurance certificate on request, or a guarantee clause limited to 30 days — both are strong signals to walk away.

Demand an itemised quote

A proper devis splits labour hours, materials (with brand and reference), travel, and applicable VAT rate (3% logement-aidé vs. 17% standard). Ranges should be tight — if 'approximate' covers a €1,000 swing, push back.

Lump-sum quote with no breakdown of labour vs. materials, or missing the VAT line — neither complies with Luxembourg consumer-protection rules.

Insist on test certificates at sign-off

Panel work and new circuits must be insulation-tested and recorded. Ask for the written test report at hand-over — you will need it for insurance claims and for any Klimabonus or property sale file.

If the electrician is reluctant to sign a written test report, they likely skipped the tests — do not pay the balance until the document is in hand.

What does an electrician charge per hour in Luxembourg?

Typical 2026 rates sit between €70 and €130 per hour excluding VAT, with most established firms around €90–€110. A call-out fee of €40–€80 is common for a single-intervention visit, and evening or weekend response usually adds a 50–80% surcharge. Figures cited by renov.lu align with Luxembourg's higher electrician salaries compared with France or Belgium.

How much is a fuse-box replacement?

Budget €800–€1,600 excl. VAT for a single-family home. Three-phase installations and jobs that require a short Creos disconnection at the meter land in the upper half of the range. The price should include the new enclosure, breakers, RCDs, labour, an insulation test, and the written conformity report.

How much does a safety inspection cost?

A conformity inspection with a written test report costs €120–€280 excl. VAT for a typical flat or house. Larger properties, three-phase installations, and inspections commissioned for a property sale or new rental tend to sit at the top of the range. The report is what banks, buyers, and insurers ask to see.

How much does it cost to install an EV charger?

An installed wallbox costs €800–€2,200 excl. VAT before subsidies. In 2026, Klimabonus Mobilitéit covers up to 50% excl. VAT (capped at €750 standard / €1,200 smart OCPP 1.6), and Luxembourg-Ville adds 50% of the state grant on top. Residents of the capital can therefore cut the out-of-pocket cost by 60–75% on a typical install.
