I cost is major issue use best quality Copper wire for mains that reach each points, Pay special attention to Ac Sockets, Electric iron, electric motor etc and Microwave oven.
Other like Lights Fans, Exhaust fans TV fridge are low watage things even very heap wire does not matter.
I reduced the wiring expenses using wires according to load.
For you interest for longevity your wiring should be able to bear at least double load.
Ac 1.5 Ton 1800 to 2100 watts about 9 to 10 AMP
Electric iron 1000 watt 5 Amps
Microwave 1200 watts 6 Amps
Donkey Pump 1/2 to1 Horse power 400 to 800 watts 2 to 4 Amps
ceiling Fan 56" good quality like GFC 100 watt or 0.5 Amp
Exhaust fan 50 to 60 watts or 0.25 Amps
Fridge 12 feet 1/6 Compressor 125 watts or 0.6 Amps
Tube light 40 watts 0.25 Amps
Energy saver 20 watts or 0.1 Amp
Local circuit breaker are very cheap use them as much as possible these are usually very helpful.
Recently I got UPS wiring done with double wire in 3 beds plus kitchen and one sitting the cost including labor was only 6000.

Ask Zardari. 5 years in power and no one could cut his cable.
