The electrician should have checked to make sure the box and the
supply will support 100. I believe it is likely it would, but without
seeing it, I guessing is the best I could do.

Those that are suggesting this might be a good time to consider
increasing your service to say 200 amps are doing you a favor. Ask
your electrician about it. If you have a small home and really don't
need it, then 100 should be fine.
