@ matt151617 - Thanks for that information I will check into measuring it.

@ pattenp - So the meter upgrade and wires would that be paid for by the city the house reside or by me? Also, i should probably do a load calculation on the house first before I incore and expenses or will most electricians come out and give you a free bid?
