Any electricians here know what this might cost? Based on what I need and want to do, I will have to either add a sub box, which stretches my already stretched power. Everyone is suggesting I just upgrade to 200 amp service. Any rough guesstimates what this costs to have the power company come out and do this? I would be buying my own box, and main breaker. I would get the same type (cutler-hammer) so that I could re-use my existing breakers.

It cost me about 1200 bucks to have a new 200 amp service, breakers & service disconnect put it in the house + a 100 amp
service into the shop....including the 70 ft of cable to it and the trench. They did it hot & it is underground. Money well spent, me thinks. |
