    Power Wall 2 quote

    My understanding of a partial backup system from one powerwall is it will backup all your 120 volt circuits and maybe one 30 amp circuit from your main service panel, anything above 30 amps will not be backup from one Powerwall, please respond if inaccurate

    Software versions for Powerwall 2?

    Miimura did you have solar installed before your Powerwalls was installed, or did you have both solar and Powerwall installed at the same time, in my case my solar system has been installed months before my Powerwall, so hopefully a PTO from the utilities is not needed as you explained.
