“Act as a professional project coordinator for electrical contractors. I need to translate a subcontractor's invoice and work summary into a clear, client-friendly explanation. Here's the subcontractor's documentation: [paste their invoice, work description, or email]. My client is a [homeowner/business owner/property manager] who doesn't understand technical electrical terms. Create a short, plain-English summary that explains: 1) What work the subcontractor completed, 2) Why this work was necessary for the overall project, 3) How it benefits the client or meets code requirements. Keep it professional but friendly, and make sure the cost breakdown is easy to understand. Format it so I can paste it directly into an email or include it with my invoice.”
