I'm assuming you mean 100 amp service, not circuit breaker? The NEC code states the minimum service is 100A. Depending on your definition of "small", this would be sufficient. It all depends on your large loads too (Electric water heater, Air conditioner, electric range, etc). These appliances can pull some large amperage.
What else can I help you with?
Does a double 50 amp breaker make a 100 amp?
No, a double pole 50 amp breaker protects a 240 volt supply at 50 amps. The number that is on the handle of the breaker is the amperage that the breaker will trip at if an overload occurs on the circuit.
How do you tell the difference between 100 amp and a 200 amp box?
You can typically determine the amperage of an electrical panel by looking at the main breaker. A 100 amp panel will have a main breaker rated at 100 amps, while a 200 amp panel will have a main breaker rated at 200 amps. Additionally, the size and number of circuit breaker slots can also be indicators of the amperage rating.
What is type of breaker for 41 amp's?
For a 41 amp load, you would typically use a 50 amp circuit breaker. The general rule is to select a breaker size that is 125% of the continuous load amps or equal to the load amps if it is not a continuous load. In this case, 41 amps is considered a continuous load, so you would round up to the nearest available breaker size, which is 50 amps.
Why does a 100 amp circuit breaker panel have 30 breakers that are 20 amps?
There is no reason, it is most likely what the the installer did.
What size circuit breaker is used for a 10000 watt single phase cooler with 240 volts?
The equation for amperage is Amps = Watts/Volts = 10000/240 = 41.6 amps. It is not stated if this is a motor load or not. If it is a motor load then the feeder has to be rated at 125% x 41.6 = 52 amp wire. Also if it is a motor load then the breaker will have to be 250% x 41.6 = 104 amps. A 100 amp breaker will work and still be within the electrical code ruling. Otherwise for 41.6 amps a 50 amp breaker will be sufficient.
What is the maximum amperage capacity of a 100 amp Pushmatic breaker?
The maximum amperage capacity of a 100 amp Pushmatic breaker is 100 amps.
What is the maximum current capacity of a 100 amp circuit breaker?
The maximum current capacity of a 100 amp circuit breaker is 100 amps.
What is the maximum amperage capacity of a 100 amp panel with main breaker?
The maximum amperage capacity of a 100 amp panel with a main breaker is 100 amps.
What is the maximum amperage capacity of the main breaker in a 100 amp sub panel with main breaker?
The maximum amperage capacity of the main breaker in a 100 amp sub panel with a main breaker is 100 amps.
What is the maximum amperage capacity of the main breaker in the electrical panel, specifically looking for a 100 amp main breaker?
The maximum amperage capacity of a 100 amp main breaker in an electrical panel is 100 amps.

Why does a 100 amp circuit breaker panel have 30 breakers that are 20 amps?
There is no reason, it is most likely what the the installer did.
Can two 225 amp panels be fed from a 400 amp breaker?
Yes, but they obviously cannot be simultaneously loaded their maximum loads because the 400-amp breaker will blow well before that. Similarly, you can have multiple 100-amp panels fed from a 200-Amp main breaker, knowing that you will NEVER have 100 amps running in all panels at the same time.
How much should you pay for a 100 amp breaker?
probally about 100 dollars
What is the maximum amperage capacity of a 240 amp breaker?
The maximum amperage capacity of a 240 amp breaker is 240 amps.
