Roy:

What is the aperage rating of the service enterance cable in your first photo (above)?

I saw one yesterday, for the first time, and the panel was sealed so I could not determine the service size.

thanks

 60 amp service
 Also be on the look out for old metal meter boxes boxes on pole out side in the country did one last year every thing in the home was 100 amp and I wrote it up as a 35 amp service . WOW every body jumped down on me the brought in another Inspector and yes he agreed 35 amp main breaker 3/4 pipe was a 35 amp service . Miss this and you could be paying for upgrade . Will look for some pictures .

Thanks Roy

I kind of thought the service was less than 100 amp and advised the client what I thought.

Thanks for the info..............BTW its nice to have some HI content here, instead of all the bickering and fighting going on. Embarrassed

Cheers
