I have a 2700 sq ft home, not including the basement of course, in the Toronto area. I am finishing my basement (say 1500sq ft) and using metal studs. I'm looking at at least $1200 CDN just for the "to code" electrical wiring (and that's not including speaker wiring). That's about 1000 ft of various 14 gauge wire (some armour casing, BX etc.). DOES THIS 1000 ft SOUND RIGHT? This 1000 foot number is according to my electrician (who happens to be my brother in-law and a reliable source). It just seems high.

I have about 22 pot lights and then the home theatre, nothing else out of ordinary.
