What is the minimum size electric service to a mobile/manufactured home?
Friday, February 8, 2019
Minimum electric service rating is 100-amps, per National Electric Code [NEC 550.32(C)], although we only see a service that small in older homes. Most newer models are 150 or 200-amps. Also, see our blog post How can I find out the size of the electric service to a house? and What is the difference between the electric service to a mobile home and a site built home?
