Hello,
Looking for some advice regarding a single Powerwall install. I have a pending order for a 4.62 kW Solar Roof with 1 Powerwall. My house has 100Amp service and I replaced my Federal Pacific Electric panel in August with an Eaton Meter Combo unit (see below, it is model MBE1224B100BTFZ). I did the stucco too and that is why it looks a bit lumpy. It was the first time I had done stucco work and I knew it would need to be ripped into later on for solar roof. I consolidated the circuits as much as possible using tandem and quad double pole BR breakers. I have six spaces (12 circuits) free in the existing panel
My water heater and dryer are both gas so they run off a 20A circuit fine. I was hoping with a single Powerwall that I could run a 100Amp sub feed breaker (Eaton model BR2100CS) off the bottom of this panel and feed it to the backup gateway and sub panel and extend the six 20A and one 15A circuit over to the backup panel. This would leave the 2 x 30A double pole quad breaker for oven and cooktop as well as the 20A furnace circuits on the existing panel and not be backed up.
Would one Powerwall be able to handle all that ok? I use about 500 KwH a month. If there is any more information needed to advise please let me know.
Thanks!
