Hi Ranit B,
Before answering your question, An electrian would need further information. Specifically, the construction detail. If the house is a timber framed with engineered joist the time taken will be considerably less than a house constructed in concrete block. The internal walls are they to be dry lined or wet plaster? As a guide therefore I will suggest this as answer A & B ( A being the former)
A. 1st fix 15 man/day 2nd fix 20 man/day
B. 1st fix 25 man/day 2nd fix 20 man/day
These are rough guides, other factors such as floor construction, access, builders policy on cleared working areas etc will be factored in
Hope this helps
Mike
