I read the FP&L Electric Service Standards for Overhead, Underground and
Residential Subdivision Areas June 2005 Online Edition Distribution Construction Processes.
"FPL recommends that the service entrance have more capacity than
the minimum required by the NEC. Local inspecting authorities shall be consulted, since some locations may have requirements that exceed the minimums."
Whereas "more capacity than the minimums" appears to be only a suggestion and conductor type is not mentioned.
This quote is the same for Residential or Commercial installations.
My advice to you is to call your local Building Department and ask an Electrical Inspector or the AHJ. 8)
