You should have an electrician make this determination. In general, a 200 Amp service is for larger homes, total electric homes, total electric manufactured homes, and small businesses. The greater the amperage, the more electric devices that can be used. The 100 Amp service is used in some older homes or homes that do not use electric heat or water heating.
