What does an electrician cost in Stockholm 2026? Prices per job

Electrician prices in Stockholm 2026: hourly rates and fixed prices for outlets, fixtures, fuse boxes and EV chargers. ROT and inner-city apartment tips.

Stockholm has Sweden's highest electrician prices, but also the largest supply, so competition for jobs is fierce if you know how to compare.

Here's what you actually pay in 2026, from Södermalm to Nacka.

Stockholm hourly rates 2026

A licensed electrician in Stockholm charges 950–1,200 SEK/hour before ROT and VAT. After 30% ROT: around 665–840 SEK/hour.

Inner-city jobs (Östermalm, Vasastan, Södermalm) sit at the upper end due to call-out, parking difficulty and minimum billing.

Fixed prices for common Stockholm jobs

Replace an outlet in a flat: 1,000–1,800 SEK after ROT. Install a ceiling light: 1,100–2,000 SEK. New circuit from fuse box in a flat: 3,500–6,500 SEK.

Replace the whole fuse box in a villa (Nacka, Täby, Lidingö): 20,000–40,000 SEK. EV charger on villa parking: 14,000–28,000 SEK.

Inner-city apartments, what to know

Many older Stockholm inner-city flats still have 1-phase 16 A. If you buy an induction cooktop or EV charger you often need to upgrade to 3-phase, a job for the building's electrician, not your own.

Any intervention in a co-op building requires board approval, especially in shared fuse box areas. Budget 2–4 weeks for processing.

Emergency and after-hours electrical work

Evenings (17–22) and weekends: 1,400–1,800 SEK/hour. Nights (22–07): 1,800–2,500 SEK/hour. Call-out: 1,500–2,500 SEK on top of labour.

For non-emergency faults (e.g. a broken outlet): wait until the next weekday. The difference is often 3,000–5,000 SEK on a small job.
