Two way water heater switches normally electrician will charge as 2 points. For example, 1 water point x RM150 then should be 2 x RM150 = RM300.

RM600 is way too much!!!  smile.gif

i'm doing for the whole house too.. the quote above only for the wiring/etc.. it doesn't include the bulb/fan/etc..

Ya, for my case, only wires cost me 2000+ , my advise is better to check with your supplier if they are using branded sirim approved cable
