Why did SDG&E quote such a high price for the service upgrade?
Was there a long easement through which larger cable would have to be pulled?
I had to pay for a transformer and my costs were still under $2000 to the utility with 100′ feet of cable from the pole to my panel included. When I put in an additional 200Amp panel for the rental , the larger diameter 100′ replacement feeder cable was free.
