I had a lot of other electrical work done at the same time and didn't break it out. In my market, I'd guess it would cost about $1,500 or so for a licensed electrician to do the installation.
Look in the yellow pages and google for a local Generac service company. They should be able to give you a good guesstimate, without coming out to the site. You need to have it installed by a Generac dealer or licensed electrician in order to send in the warranty card. The card requires the license number . . . In my case, I also need a plumber to run the Natural Gas line and for the Gas Co. to install a larger, more adequate meter. It does suck down some NG when it runs and the std meter and pipe size is too small to support the load. That will also void the warranty, if not properly sized for the unit.
