When I bought my house the eletrical wires coming from the pole to the house were above ground, and attatched to the side of my house, then ran down to the meter.
I had my electrical company come and bury the electrical lines in the ground. They told me this new line would be ready for 200 amp service upgrade when i chose to do it.
Well the time has come and I am ready to upgrade to 200 amp service. I will be installing a new furnace and a heat pump, as well as remodeling a couple of rooms in my basement in the upcoming few years.
Outside of hiring an electrician, what else do I need? I am currently looking at a Square D QO 200 AMP Breaker Box with 40 circuit capacity.
What else will he need, and how much should I expect to spend?
