Can I upgrade my panel to 200amp from 100amp
My utility company feeders are 1/0 aluminum... can I upgrade from 100amp panel to 200 amp panel with the existing feeders or do I need to call them?

If it is their wiring and in the Air, You may be OK.

In any case, any service change or upgrade,the local utility must be consulted, along with the local electrical inspector.
