For the 200 amp service, the city had to replace the wire from the pole
to the house. If I had gone with the 100 amp service the city would
have used the same gauge wire AND charged me the same $297 to disconnect
and reconnect the electrical. Its only money.

The only differance is fuse in the hydro box.They make you update your
panel and put the meter on the out side of the house and in some cases
you
have to rewire your house to current standards. I could cost up to
$5000.00
in some cases or more for a 2 storey house. I have a 100 amp service
with
central air dryer and stove and have no problems.
