    Sure, but both homes will be limited to a total capacity of the incoming 200 amp service.

    You do realize the incoming service will not be sized properly for both homes, and the Main may be tripping frequently. What type of heat is in the two homes?

    This also assumes there will be ONE 200 amp main for both.
