A 200 amp service is the max normal residential panel.
But you can have more than 1 panel.

If the house is wired accordingly, it can have any amount of amps necessary to handle the outlets and loan carry by each. Generally, houses have 220 amp.s, and this is more than they usually need. The old standard, and what The Federal Housing Administration considers to be the minimum is 100 amps. You should always have 220 amps if you want to run air cond. tvs, stoves, outside and inside lights, other appliances at the same time. The panel size determines the amount of amps. it can carry, as each breaker is for a certain appliance, or area. The bigger the panel the more breakers you can have. Breakers can handle amps. for small and large usage areas. Generally, you have one for the a/c-furnace, another for the d/w, and another for the refrigerator/range and so on. So, the answer is, that you use the sized panel that will handle the number of total amps., (breakers), you need to furnish power to all of your electrical needs.

Not so sure but I think it will depend on the design of your house panel.

No idea. What clountry are you talking about? What state or comunity building laws do you need to comply with?
Need more information to answer your question. Suggest you talk with a local government building inspector.
