Electrical wiring concern with my PB

I guess the big question is what AMP service does that mean? If they were planning on running a 60 AMP (which I would deem to be the minimum)

While I was reaffirming poolidiots statement last night I meant to address this but got off rambling about how I've lost my power. I lost track of the topic and posted the reply.

Kelly,
They said they are going to do a 100 AMP panel for me as a sub panel was already included in my bid. In addtion to the pool equiptment I have the following:

1. 15 AMP circuit for outdoor kitchen. It will be running a small light and fridge so this will only use a few amps.
2. 15-20 AMP circuit for covered patio. This will have 6 can lights, 2 ceiling fans and two flood lights. This should be about 1200 watts max.
3. 15 AMP circuit for lanscape lighting. This will be maybe 10 AMP's.

So with the pool equiptment and other power needs I am somewhere around 60-70 AMP's max. The cost to change from a 70 AMP to 100 AMP feed is around $10.00-$20.00 so I figured why not. I have extra capacity if I ever need it. Thanks!

Steve
