The wire size is governed by the ampacity of the service that is being installed. The wire should have a cross-linked polyethylene type of insulation which is rated for 90 degrees C.

"CAN"? Certainly. But you will need to run a new service cable. You'll need to have your licensed electrical contractor work out the details with your local electrical power company, and get the appropriate permits.


What size wire do you need for a 200 amp service?

200 amp service is the rating of electrical power available to your home. Older homes only had 60 amp service. Newer homes were updated to 100 or 150 amp service. The standard for most US homes today is 200 amp. You can find out what your service is by looking at the top breaker in your electrical box, it should be stamped on that.


What size ground wire should you use on a 1200 amp service?

You need to say whether it's a 150 amp service or a 1200 amp service it has to be one or the other. <<>> A 1/0 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 155 amps. There is no ground wire stated for a 150 amp service so the next size up is a 200 amp service. The ground wire for this size is #6 bare AWG. Without knowing what types of loads that are coming off of the distribution a reduced neutral can not be recommended. The neutral will be the same size as the service conductor which is 1/0.
