Electrical quotes,
with authorisation covered.

Calco is built for electrical installation companies. Describe the job or take a photo - Calco knows cable cross-sections, installation heights, and authorisation requirements, and finds the right Solar or Lemvigh-Müller products at accurate cost prices.

Built for your trade

Your trade.
Built in.

Calco knows the rules, standards, and suppliers in your trade. No need to explain your trade every time.

01

Authorisation always covered

Fixed electrical installations require an authorised installer. Calco automatically adds a line item for liability and documentation so the customer knows exactly what is included.

02

Cable cross-section calculated automatically

1.5 mm² for lighting, 2.5 mm² for sockets, 4-6 mm² for appliances, 10 mm² for cookers. Calco selects the correct cross-section based on the job description.

03

Standard installation heights

Sockets 30 cm from floor, switches 110 cm, kitchen sockets 110 cm. Calco calculates from these without you having to specify them.

04

Old installations identified

Take a photo of the board or consumer unit - Calco identifies old aluminium cables, missing RCD protection, and illegal concealed installations, and adds the remediation work to the quote.

Trade context

Rules and standards in place

Calco knows the professional foundation that separates an amateur quote from a professional one.

  • Danish Building Regulations (BR) and the Danish Safety Technology Authority guidelines
  • DS/HD 60364 series - electrical installations in buildings
  • DS/EN 61439 - switchgear and controlgear assemblies
  • DS/EN 62305 - lightning protection
  • DS/EN 60204-1 - machinery safety
  • The Authorisation Act - requirements for authorised electrical installers

Why electrical quotes are easy to get wrong

An electrical quote has many small items, each easy to forget: cable cross-sections, routing, boxes, switches, panel components and RCDs. Add DS/HD 60364, authorisation requirements and prices to look up across Solar and Lemvigh-Muller - and a quick estimate easily turns into an evening at the desk.

Calco builds the line items for you. Describe the job by voice, text or photo, and Calco finds the right components from your own price files, at your actual cost prices. The recurring items - cables, routing, boxes and materials - are accounted for, so the quote matches what you actually need to buy.

The authorisation stays yours. If a job requires an authorised electrician, Calco marks it with a line for responsibility and documentation and gives you professional context around DS/HD 60364, RCDs and fire requirements - but you always review and adjust the quote before it is sent as a PDF or straight into your order or accounting system.
