A #2 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 130 amps.
The recommended size for a main breaker in a residential electrical panel with a 125 amp main breaker is typically 150 amps.
The maximum amperage capacity of a 125 amp panel with a main breaker is 125 amps.
The maximum amperage capacity of the 125 amp main breaker in the electrical panel is 125 amps.
You should not load a 125 amp panel any more than 100 amps.
To determine the compatibility of a Square D 125 amp breaker with your electrical panel, you need to check the manufacturer's specifications for your panel to see if it is rated to handle a 125 amp breaker. It is important to ensure that the breaker is compatible with the panel to avoid any safety hazards or damage to the electrical system.
No, it is not safe or recommended to connect a 200 amp service to a 125 amp panel. The panel must be rated to match the amperage of the service to avoid overloading the panel and potential fire hazards. It is important to upgrade the panel to match the service amperage.
A #3 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 115 amps. Even though the panel is rated at a higher amperage it is the main breaker that governs the wire size.
For a 100 amp sub panel, you would typically need a 2-2-2-4 aluminum SER cable. This cable consists of three insulated conductors (two hot and one neutral) and one bare ground wire. It is important to always consult your local electrical code and a qualified electrician to ensure you have the correct size and type of cable for your specific installation.

AWG 2/0 copper.
Three or four would be normal. The total current should not exceed the rating of the main panel, so depending on how intensively the different circuits are used, more could be installed.
The recommended wire size for a 125 amp electrical circuit is typically 2/0 AWG copper wire.
