I am going to install a 100amp 12circuit outdoor panel on a telephone pole. It will be fed from a terminal box. Do i need a disconnect(back feed a breaker) or can I go straight into the terminals? Thank you in advance!

If more than 6 circuits, yes.if you have a detached garage do you still need a main in the garage?
my brain says I need it
for some reason I cant put my finger on the article
Hi , I'm not sure I am posting this in the right place but I would like to get some advice .
I am adding about 1200 sqft of finished space in my basement. My current panel is a bit full so i want to add a 100A Sub Panel, going to have around 22 recessed lights, ejector pump circuit, Dehumidifier Circuit, sink pump circuit, outlets.

Ok guys , this is what was proposed to me as the job we will be doing.
Anyone wanna help me understand this ?
According to the guy I'm working with we will be using a 60 amp panel with #6 Romex and a 50 amp breaker in the main panel. Number 6 Romex is limited to 55 amps.
He says this gives you 50 amps at 240 volts, 100 amps at 120 volts.
He says this will give us plenty of power and leave room for expansion.
I'm a little unclear about the 50 amp breaker giving us 50 amps at 240 volts, and 100 amps at 120 volts, How does the 50 amp breaker create 50 amps at 240 volts and how does it become 100 amps at 120 volts?
Again please bare with me if I sound stupid here but I am learning and I really do appreciate your opinions.
