    No solar power in self consumption mode

    I actually tried this too. Yesterday I left the system turned off for 30 minutes and turned it back on. Turns out inverter was fine all along it's just that the solar assembly wasn't enabled.

    No solar power in self consumption mode

    It works!!! Enabling "Solar Assembly" in Installer mode was all that was required. Just one button click... I'm 1) elated to see the solar energy flowing, 2) extremely grateful to this community for all the guidance and 3) utterly disappointed in the competence/knowledgeability of Tesla technicians.

    No solar power in self consumption mode

    I just completed this step. (Eagerly) Waiting for sunlight to hit my panels. Hopefully this is the missing piece.

    No solar power in self consumption mode

    I'm starting to believe that the reason my inverter's "TEG-xxx" network isn't broadcasting is because the inverter isn't reset properly (and I haven't been able to reset it using the instructions available online or with a walkthrough by a Tesla technician). No matter what breaker/system I turn...

    No solar power in self consumption mode

    Thanks for the quick response. I see two unsecured networks when I get closer to my system. One is the "TEG-xxx" network from my gateway and the other is a "PWRview-xxxxx" network. The QR code inside the inverter has a sticker inside for a different "TEG-xxx" network but that's not available. I...

    No solar power in self consumption mode

    That’s unfortunate for me then. City inspection completed a couple of weeks ago. And I’m realizing it’s really difficult to get any meaningful support from them. I haven’t been able to sign in to the inverter. Could you please let me know how to do that? As I mentioned in the response to...

    No solar power in self consumption mode

    Yes, city inspection was completed few weeks back and Tesla team never mentioned anything about self consumption mode so I didn’t get a chance to debug this with a Tesla person, unfortunately. How do I connect to the inverter? When I scan the QR code inside the inverter, it tells me that the...

    No solar power in self consumption mode

    No solar yet. I hopped on a call with a technician and walked through the whole process again including 1) a sub-panel shutoff and 2) powerwall shutoff of ~7mins. During that time, 1) the inverter's green light blinked about every 1s and 2) powerwall's light blinked every 2s or so. The...

    No solar power in self consumption mode

    For question #1, I double checked my main panel and the sub-panel, but I didn't see any breakers labeled Solar PV. Then I looked at the breakers inside the gateway and found out that it's inside the gateway (didn't notice this before as both of them were labeled as "Powerwall+" on the left hand...

    No solar power in self consumption mode

    I have a 4.08kW solar (Hanwa panels), a Tesla inverter, Powerwall+ and a BackupGateway 2. I have not received PTO yet and only recently I found out that I am able to operate my system in self-consumption mode prior to PTO. What transpired next is a long story but I'll get to the questions I have...
