    Upgrade to 200A
    There are 2 of all appliances, a freezer, heat in suite is electric, as is water heater and both stoves. The power washer blew a breaker last week... I had an electrician do a test and it came in at 104%, but he said there is leeway?
    I am very confused right now..
    Thanks for your replies

    As am I. What exactly are we responding to? :confused:

    Your opening sentence is very confusing. Are you saying that you have two of each of these applainces? Is this a duplex home with ONE 100A service?

    What test did he do?
    What does the 104% represent?
