electric work

siemans 400 main lug.
siemans 400 main breaker.
siemans 200 panel

80 amp rated copper wire for 200 ft run.

100 ft 200amp rated alumin wire.

400amp meter.

Gad zooks! That's some serious power you're wanting to move! I can't answer all your questions other than to say that it would take 2 gauge copper to hold 80 amps. I'd think at 200 feet you might want to go one size larger.

Electrical work depends a huge amount on your location. I think your best bet is to get 2 or 3 bids from local contractors.

My cousin moved here from Long Island NY. She paid $2,600 to have a new entrance wire run from the roof peak to the main panel. Around here that job would be less than $400.

Just curious... what's all the power needed for?

A 20kW kohler Generator.

Ahhh, well.... are you actually going to USE the 20,000 watts? If not I'd calculate my load and only buy the wire I need to carry that load. Put a circuit breaker on the generator side to protect the wire & off ya go. If you only need 7 or 8,000 watts to run a house, you'd save a bundle. Of course if you're running a 4 unit apartment with electric heat and welders in the garage..... go back to plan "A".

Should not be more than $150 with main breaker included. Lowes carries these for $138

I just paid $2.85 per foot, for Triplex Aluminum URD "Sweetbriar" Secondary cable. Gauge 4/0, 4/0, 2/0
It was shipped to me at no additional cost.
The 2" grey conduit cost me $0.48 per foot from Lowes.

You'll have to get local Installation and labor costs. My Labor costs were $0.00 since I installed my own.
