service question

[wi_electrician]

I have a home with a 200 amp service. The home owners are doing everything electric. The boiler takes 2 50 amp and 1 60 amp circuits suppiled to it. Am I going to need a seperate 200 amp service to run just the boiler? It i also hooked up to run off peak. Thanks in advance.

You need to do a calculation. Without knowing the rest of the demand it would be hard to say for sure but it sounds like a 400 amp service may be what is needed.
