If I replace an existing 100 amp panel with a new 100 amp panel and replace the service entrance conductors without adding to the couduit, will i also have to upgrade the meter and the mast?

help clear this up please!!!

Re: panel replacement

what about a load calculation to ensure that a 100 amp is sufficient. if you are adding any additional loads i would suggest doing a load cal to make sure it is big enough. otherwise just change it out. in our area we are required get the electric company to set the fault current rating for a service. on the single family home they put the arresrer at the transformer, but on multi family and commercial buildings they have to set it.
