Thanks @miimura and @BGbreeder for replies! FWIW @miimura the install manual available from Telsa (page 41) gives very small clearances: Minimum clearance from left side (air intake) 2 in (50 mm) Minimum clearance from right side (air exhaust) 6 in (150 mm) Minimum clearance above...

Given the only servicable part of a powerwall is the switch on the side, would a single powerwall install with say just 12" of front clearance and 12" of right-side clearance inside a fire closet be sufficient? i.e. enough that someone can easily operate the switch.

To satisfy the new CRC fire requirements for the Powerwall we may end up building a small closet/partition wall around it--as the unfinished basement space it will be in is quite large. I'm mostly trying to figure out how large such a closet/room would need to be to be acceptable (e.g. could...

Hello- I have a single powerwall getting installed soon and want to know if either Tesla or NEC/California building code would disallow putting the powerwall in an unfinished basement/dug-out crawl space on concrete slab where there's only 5'10" working height below the floor joists. Ideally...
