Lesson 19: Student Estimate – Feeder Conduit & Wire

In this lesson, you will estimate the feeder conduit and conductors connecting the major distribution equipment on your student project. Using the one-line diagram, plans, schedules, and equipment locations, you will identify feeder sizes, determine routing and approximate lengths, and account for the materials and labor associated with each feeder. This step brings together several parts of the estimate and demonstrates how the electrical distribution design translates into actual construction quantities and costs.
