    Powerwall install question NorCal Bay area (stacking)

    Wonder if powerwall stacking is now available in California? I have Solar + PW+ and PW installed and got email from Tesla that they now provide PW only, so I am thinking to add additional PW but only if I can stack it onto the other PW. Does anyone know if stacking is now approved in California?

    Powerwall switch during outage.

    Yeah, I was wondering if was just surge issue in which case I can install whole house surge protector, like if it takes longer to switch might actually be better, as it is clear disconnect. Would be awesome to find out what is causing it.

    Santa Clara County retroactively Changing ESS Rules

    Thank you, yeah wonder when that would be allowed so I can add 3x PW to my system. Should have done that when I ordered the system but didn't.

    Solar Generation "choppy"

    Tesla inverter that is part of the PW+ I think is 7.6kW

    Santa Clara County retroactively Changing ESS Rules

    Would that mean 3' separation is not longer required and stacking should be allowed?

    Solar Generation "choppy"

    I have single inverter (PW+) which has 3 strings connected. My system is 8.16kW with 20x panels. Weird that power cycle returns it back to normals.

    Solar Generation "choppy"

    Question for you for people out there if they see the same "issue" as I do. Up to yesterday I had 21.35.2 (seems like today my PW+ got updated to 21.39.7759c368) Over time, my solar generation based on the Tesla App , gets pretty choppy and I see degradation on total solar production. I have...

    Santa Clara County retroactively Changing ESS Rules

    It makes sense, I didn't see anything referring to the size or door either. Just was passing what they have done before. I didn't have to do it as I have plenty of empty wall. Hopefully once UL+ pass I can just stack battery, so I don't have to space all of them

    Santa Clara County retroactively Changing ESS Rules

    Again that what installed told me as my windows aren't considered egress.

    Santa Clara County retroactively Changing ESS Rules

    Autocorrect failed! certain size of windows. When my installer came, he looked at the windows I had, and said that I am fine by installing the PW closer than 36". As the windows I have in the kitchen are smaller than what would have consider to be used for emergency.
  33. C

    Santa Clara County retroactively Changing ESS Rules

    One thing you need to check is the size of the window. As if the window is smaller the curtain size you should be ok.

    I can't for some reason update my old post, but as Tesla fashion, nothing is getting done or moving forward without you driving it....

    NorCal Powerwall owners. What is your reserve percentage right now? (Late October 2021)

    I switched to 40% with the rainy weather. Typically I am down to 20% when there is sun, which usually let me charge by mid day and use the rest at night.

    Solar Panels Design

    You Probably want another PW. don't look only your average but check on your peak-days. In the summer when your AC is running and you are at home cooking or running the dryer, also having a little extra store for backup isn't a bad thing. Adding another PW later will be a lot more expensive and...

    How long between inspection and PTO? [various areas]

    sounds like BS to me. Based on my conversation with them ( and I had many) system is automated to flag your account ready to submit for PTO, once they check all boxes. Call the main line and chat with whoever pick up and ask them to review your account and what is taking so long. On my account...

    replacing roof at the same time as Tesla solar panel install

    You might want to check with Tesla, at least my installer had to confirm how old the roof is, he mentioned that if is brand new roof they won't install the panels and wanted to to be at least 6months all to settle first.

    System automatically capping production prior to PTO?

    yes, pre PTO with GW2 and PW+, Inventor would adjust the solar production to match what you need. If you have powerwall , will charge with excess from solar production
