Install a 50 amp breaker in the 100 amp panel and run appropriate size wire to the sub panel connectors...
<><><>
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.

Can a outlet box be mounted to electrical panel?
No, an outlet box cannot be mounted directly to an electrical panel. Electrical panels have specific requirements for clearance and access, and mounting an outlet box to it would violate those safety guidelines. It is recommended to install outlets separately on the wall near the panel if needed.

The main items required for an electrical panel include the panel box itself, fuses, and wiring. The wires are fed into the box and attached to a series of circuit breakers to allow electricity to be directed as needed.
Can you upgrade a 100A main circuit breaker to a higher amp?

Is it unsafe to have 60A service going into a new electrical box designed for 100A?
Its not recommended because your new main breaker will allow up to 100 amps and your old wire can only safely handle 60amps. If you put a 60amp main breaker in the new box, that would be acceptable. No, it is perfectly safe. Because the box is overrated, there is no problem. If the box is the main panel, and not a subpanel, install a 60A main breaker so you cannot overload your service. If it is a subpanel this 60A breaker should be in the main panel.
What are the necessary steps to upgrade an electrical panel box to a 200 amp capacity?
To upgrade an electrical panel box to a 200 amp capacity, you will need to hire a licensed electrician to assess your current electrical system, obtain necessary permits from your local building department, shut off power to the panel box, disconnect and remove the old panel box, install the new 200 amp panel box, connect the wiring and circuits to the new panel box, and have the installation inspected and approved by the local building department.

How do you hook up a three prong outlet for an electric stove with a 50A outlet?
This is a common topic here. Firstly, if you are installing new work go with a 4 prong oven outlet. 3 prong outlets are old and do not meet code for new work. To install, you need to run 6/3 romex wire from your main panel to your new outlet. Install the new outlet in a box behind your oven. Wire up the 6/3 in the panel to a 50A 240V breaker. Remember the color code: Black/red/brass screw is hot, White/silver screw is neutral, bare wire/green screw is ground. I also recommend buying a book on Home Electricity repairs. It will show you how to do it right and serve as a handy reference during the job. As always, do it right or hire someone to do it for you. Negligence is fatal with electricity.
How do you install a 110v receptacle from a 3 phase breaker box if there are no neutrals in the breaker box?
