I have a house with a 100A panel & am adding 2 60 A breakers to the existing 6 20A ,4 15A, 2 30A 220v 1 50A 220v Do I have enough to use the 100A panel or do I have to upgrade. I have a 150 A panel with all the breakers I need. If so, what size meter can do I use 100A or 200A?

What are the two 60A breakers for??

Regardless, it would seem that you are overtaxing your 100A service by adding them.

A 150A panel would require a 150 or 200A meter pan.

Thanks, that is what I thought. The 60A breakers are for an electric air handler heating element
