100 Amp vs. 200 Amp Service
Amperage describes how much electrical capacity your panel can safely deliver at once. Many older California homes were built with 100A service.
100 Amp Service
Common in older homes. May be sufficient for basic household needs, but can leave limited room for EV charging, solar, battery storage or heavy appliance loads.
200 Amp Service
Substantially more available capacity — commonly used to support EV charging, solar, battery storage, electrification and larger remodels alongside everyday household use.
