How do you bond a 200amp service panel?
To bond a 200amp service panel, you need to connect the grounding bar and the neutral bar in the panel using a bonding strap or screw provided by the manufacturer. This establishes a direct connection between the neutral and ground conductors, ensuring proper grounding and safety for the electrical system. It's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and local electrical codes when bonding a service panel.
What size wire to ground water pipe?

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.
In a residential 200amp service is 100 amps the maximum that each of the two phase conductor can transmit or can they both carry 200 amps?
Each hot leg to the neutral wire of the service has the ampacity of 200 amps, that is why 3/0 wire is required. A 3/0 copper wire with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 210 amps.
Can you use a 200Amp disconect to feed a 100Amp main panel?
No, it is not recommended to use a 200A disconnect to feed a 100A main panel. The disconnect should always be rated equal to or higher than the main panel it is feeding to ensure proper protection and capacity handling. It is important to match the amperage ratings to avoid potential overload and safety hazards.

Will upgrading to a 400amp from 200amp main service circuit breaker cure power drops NOT outages just drops in power amperage I currently have 200amp main service and am considering upgrading to 400?
Increasing the ampacity of your service will not cure power drops. If your main breaker has not tripped then your connected load is under 200 amps. The power drops are the responsibility of your utility company. They are required to keep the voltage within a 10% tolerance. When asked some utility companies will connect a recording volt meter to your line to check your claim of low voltage. Call them. Log the time when the power drops over a week. If they will not monitor your line give them the list of the power drops that you recorded as this may help them. You are probably at the end of the line and connections up stream are probably the cause of your power fluctuations.
Can you feed a 208v 200amp panel from 480v 20amp circuit?
Not directly, you would need to transform 480v circuit to 120v with a transformer first.
How long can the wires be for a 200amp service with 240 volt?
The wires can be as long as they need to be to make the connection. It is a fact that as the length of the wires are increased, the size of the wire also has to be increased, to over come the voltage drop due to the internal resistance of the wire. A 3/0 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 210 amps. This is the normal size for a 200 amp service. If the service is further away, then the increasing of the wire size starts at 3/0.
