It depends on a lot of factors. Since you will have to get an electrician involved you should start there. It is likely that you can double the capacity, but the electrician would consult with your power company to determine what is possible. I recently went from 200 A to 400 A service with a large addition; and a transformer was required in the house with rework of the two panels I already had into 5 panels.

What is the maximum amps each phase conductor carries on 200 amp residential service?
Each phase conductor on a 200 amp residential service typically carries up to 200 amps of current, assuming the load is evenly distributed across all three phases. Each phase conductor should be able to handle the maximum current capacity of the service to ensure safety and proper functioning of the electrical system.
What does single pole and double pole mean on a twenty four vault circuit?
Single pole refers to a circuit breaker that interrupts the current flow of one hot wire, while double pole interrupts the current flow of two hot wires simultaneously. In a 240-volt circuit, a double-pole breaker is used to control both the hot wires, providing higher safety protection as both sides of the circuit are disconnected.
How many watts will a 60 amp 2pole breaker handle?
A 60 amp 2-pole breaker can handle up to 14,400 watts (60 amps x 240 volts). This is because a 2-pole breaker provides 240 volts, which is the typical voltage for larger appliances and machinery.
How many amps does a 2000 watt heater draw at 240 volts?
Amps * Volts = Watts So, Watts / Volts = Amps 2000 / 240 = 8.333 Amps You should run the circuit on a two pole 15 Amp breaker, using 14 AWG, 2 conductor (plus ground) wire, just so you have a little safety factor in the circuit size.
How do you wire a 50A service pole from your 200A breaker box so you can keep your motor home plugged up?
If the service pole is only rated for 50 amps, that is all it is designed to handle. The service pole has to be upgraded to handle a home that has a 200 amp entrance panel. Call an electrician and pay for his/her expertise!! Your Family is too important to rely on the advice of a salesperson. I believe your asking how would you add a 50a service pole using your 200amp service? I would highly recommend having a licensed electrician do the work for you as electricity will kill you if you even touched the wrong spot!! Otherwise, You would need all the necessary items from possibly a home improvement ctr and a book on how to do wiring plus all the necessary permits from your town or city etc... (without the proper permits your insurance carrier wouldn't have to pay if a clain were ever made and traced back to your wiring!) Check your 200amp box to see if you have at least 2 empty slots as you'll need at least that many to run that amount of power, 220 volts, Hope this helps a bit.
How many amps normally are supplied from the pole to any given home in okc?

FRom the pole to any home in ok how many amps is normally deliversd?
200 amps is the average
What is the Max distance from house to power pole?
The maximum distance of a wire drop between a service pole and service connection is undefined, as it depends on many factors not included in the question. The information needed to actually compute such a distance includes, but it is not limited to, the service volts, the service Class (60, 100, 200, 400 or more amps), and whether or not the drop involves a mid span tap -- that is, the service is actually connected not to a pole, but it is connected to secondary wires between two poles. <<>> A utility company will usually bring their service a maximum of 100 feet on to private property.
What does single pole and double pole mean on a twenty four vault circuit?
Single pole refers to a circuit breaker that interrupts the current flow of one hot wire, while double pole interrupts the current flow of two hot wires simultaneously. In a 240-volt circuit, a double-pole breaker is used to control both the hot wires, providing higher safety protection as both sides of the circuit are disconnected.
Is it possible that single pole MCB will have 40 amps and 63 Amps rating?
It its rating is 63 amps that means the current can be anything from 0 to 63 amps but not more.
How many volts of power does a power pole use?
none is magic
Is there any phone service in the North Pole?
no there is phone service in the north pole
How do you convert 208 volt amps to 480 volt amps?
Add another leg of 120 to a three pole breaker.
What size wire to use for 100 amp service 160 feet from the power pole?
For a 100 amp service located 160 feet from the power pole, it is recommended to use 2 AWG copper wire or 1/0 AWG aluminum wire to ensure proper voltage drop and safety. Be sure to consult with a licensed electrician to determine the specific requirements for your installation.
What 3 phase cable do you use if the building is 160 meters from the power pole?
This is a voltage drop question. To answer it, a voltage of the service and amperage that the service is going to be have to be stated
What is the maximum number of watts and amps of a 115v AC?
there is no limit look at your circuit breaker it will say example my single pole breakers are 20 amps which according to OHM's law says that is equal to a maximum of 2300 watts (Voltage X Current = Power)
How many volts from a double pole 15 amp breaker?
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz power supply service. 230 to 240 volts on any size two pole breaker on single phase installations. The voltage varies from location to location from different utility power companies.
