Here is the information that you are looking for.

For a normal single family residence, I recommend a 3/4-Inch water supply. If you have a very wealthy residence with multiple bathrooms, etc. you should upsize to at least to 1-Inch service.

Water mains will probably be 50 mm with 150 mm transmission mains.

See the following document:

Pipe diameter usually refers to the nominal inside diameter.
