This past Thursday night, a big storm rolled thru my area. Lots of rain and lighting. I came home during the middle of the storm. I waited till the storm had passed to plugin my car and charge.
After we arrived home and it was still storming, we noticed the lights flickering, like they might do during a storm. Almost like a warning that the power might be on its way out. Well, the storm passed, and our lights are still flickering 3 days later. Not constantly, maybe every few minutes or so. Seems random, not related to the AC or fridge, or anything like that. This is a new house, 1 year old, and never experienced anything like this.
So charging the Tesla with the wall charger is also impacted too. It will charge up about 7%, then say charging interrupted. Never did that before. If I unplug, plug it back in, and start charging again I will get about another 7%. Does not matter if I drop the amps down to something low, like 15, instead of the normal 48.
I had the power company out over the weekend and they checked the meter, and the line to the house. Said I have perfect voltage. Its gotta be something on the inside. I told them I have a surge breaker in my box, and they said that is likely the cause. But the green status light on the surge breaker shows its okay.
A few neighbors on nextdoor are also reporting the issue. We did seem to loose our Keurig during this storm too.
What could be causing this, where should I start looking?
