I would like to upgrade my electrical service to 200amp panel. I would like to place the new panel in the garage and have the power company run the power underground. The pole is only 10ft away so hopefully this will not be too costly. I would then like to run power underground from the garage to feed the house (another words the house panel would become a subpanel for the garage).
My plan is this....In the future I will be tearing down my existing house. So, it would be nice to still have power at the site of the garage. My current house has a 100 amp panel. Can I feed the house as a subpanel? Is this the best way to go about my plan? Should I run a large enough wire to plan for a bigger panel in the new house....maybe 150amp? Any thoughts would be helpful. thanks.
