Do home utilities go to business expense or in-home office write off?

It looks like they could go in either, or both? I'm guessing we can't put them in both.

They are reported under Business Expenses, Home Office Expense. See the screenshot below.

TurboTax creates Form 8829, Expenses for Business Use of Your Home - IRS.gov
