It will be all very variable, you need to know how much running your business will cost before you can set rates, if you say I will work for £10/hour and your business costs £20 per hour to run then you are paying £10 per hour to give someone else your work.

Work out your business costs (all of them) over a year, assess a likely number of hours per year working, less weekends, holidays, days getting stock, bank holidays, etc. do the division and get your minimum rate to stay afloat.

No, work it out yourself

The problem is if you knew what everyone else in the area was charging you could undercut them.

Look at it the other way around, would you publish your rates so people could undercut you?

Just charge 25% more than the hr rate you were getting form your previous electrical post before going self-employed, adjust from there at year end if you cant make ends meet! Or go back to the last job .....

As a rough guess, its east coast so not top rates, centre of brum 200 london 300 im thinking lower than 180 a day.

thats my guesses I have no books like glasses guide to cars just hearsay.

like MDJ said work it out yourself!!

Don't come over desperate,
stand your ground,
make promises and KEEP them.
Don't argue with clients,
don't rip clients off.
Provide certs with invoices,
log notifiable work the day you complete it with your scheme,
clear up after you........
Be polite and courteous.........

Learn to sell yourself, you are your business aren't you. if you cant sell what you have, you can't run a business its that simple
