What size Amperes for electrical service if I have 100a 125a 125a 150a and 150a panels?
To determine the appropriate size of electrical service, you need to consider the total load and usage requirements of your facility or home. Typically, the service size should be at least equal to the largest panel, which in your case is 150 amps. However, it's important to consult with a licensed electrician to perform a load calculation based on your specific needs and ensure compliance with local electrical codes. They can help you assess whether a single service can accommodate multiple panels or if a larger service is necessary.

What is the difference between a 60A service and a 100A service and how is the difference recognized?
The difference is the difference in the size of service entrance conductor and maximum ampacity of the service equipment [panel].The panel will be labeled and the main breaker, if there is one, will say 100 on the operating handle.It is unlikely you will find a sixty amp service unless it has fuses [probably with pull-outs] and cloth service cable [it will be very old]. Many of these old fuse services may be 100 amps.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
When did builders start installing 100A service with breakers in new constructions in Minneapolis Minnesota?
I don't know anything about Minneapolis except that it's cold, but anything under 100 Amps is normally inadequate for an average home. Therefore, the service you mention is the bare minimum required for a home of less than 2,000 sf leaving little room for future consumption and the possibility of costs for upgrading to a larger service.
How much electrical service panel size for a house?
Amps are the amount of power you're using. If you only have one light on then you're maybe drawing 1 or 2 amps. If you have everything in the house on you may be drawing 50 or 60 or more amps.
What size of electrical wire needed for 100A circuit breaker?
For a 100A circuit breaker, you typically need a wire size of #2 AWG (American Wire Gauge) for copper conductors or #1/0 AWG for aluminum conductors. It is important to consult the National Electrical Code (NEC) or a qualified electrician to determine the appropriate wire size for your specific installation.
What size pipe and size aluminum wire are required for a 100A sub panel off a 200A main service?
For a 100A subpanel, a minimum of 1.5-inch Schedule 80 PVC conduit or 1.25-inch rigid metal conduit is recommended. As for the aluminum wire, for a 100A feeder, you would typically use 1/0 AWG aluminum wire for a 3-wire setup or 2/0 AWG aluminum wire for a 4-wire setup. Always consult local electrical codes and a licensed electrician for precise specifications for your installation.
What is the recommended wire size for a 100A electrical circuit?
The recommended wire size for a 100A electrical circuit is typically 3 AWG copper or 1 AWG aluminum.
What is the recommended wire size for a 100A service?
The recommended wire size for a 100A service is typically 2 AWG copper or 1/0 AWG aluminum.
How do you upgrade the service from a 120V 100A circuit breaker to 240V 30A for appliances like ovens and dryers?
Have an electrician wire you a proper line for the appliance. You were just kidding about the 100A, right? 10, or 20amp, not 100.

Is 100a - 35 a monomial?
No because 100a-35 is an algebraic expression containing two terms.

How many circuits can you have with 100A service?
As many as you want without exceeding the 100amps. You could have 100 circuits if all you have is a single 100watt light on each circuit.

Will a 15000 kw transformer power a 2500sqft house?
A 15000 KW transformer will power a small city! One KW is one thousand watts, so 15000 KW is 15,000,000 watts. The average 2500 ft2 house in the US uses somewhere between 24000 and 48000 watts maximum (thats a 100A or 200A service). Did you perhaps mean 15000 watts? That would correspond to a 60A service, which is pretty small. If you have gas appliances (stove, furnace, water heater, clothes dryer) and no big electrical appliances, such as an air conditioner, then maybe a 60A service would do. Most jurisdictions require a minimum 100A service these days except in unusual situations, such as mobile homes and such. A house that size should have a 200A 42 circuit panel. This relates to a 50Kva transformer
