I live in Nashville, Tennessee and am wanting to build a room addition onto
my home. But the wattage that is currently in the home will not suffice. I
will need more wattage. How much does it cost to get additional wattage in my
home.



What you may need is a larger main or (slightly less favorable) a
subpanel. A panel is about $100, wiring $100, labor $500. Get 3-5
estimates with references and written proof of insurance/bonded, years
of experience. You'll find that pricing can greatly vary and many
workers can't produce written proof of insurance. Don't risk an
electrical fire.
