How hard is it to upgrade if you have a 100 Amp service and want to change to 200 Amp with a new breaker panel?

=== === == == The process of replacing the equipment that comprises your service is simple and straightforward.

1. Get a permit.

2. A trained person cuts the service conductors so that they don't interfere with the utility company lines [so they can splice back in]!

3. Remove the circuit conductors from the old panel.

4. Demolish the old service.

5. Install the new service.

6. Reconnect the circuit conductors.

7. Tie the new service cable back into the utility lines.

8. Call for inspection.

As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.

Before you do any work yourself,

on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,

always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.
