Thanks. After some research, since I have 1:1 net metering in MD and Powerwall 3s are LFP, I was thinking about setting it to 100% to avoid the Solar > Powerwall > Home conversion.

Not sure if this has been posted yet. Here's the PW3 spec sheet from my install.

Congratulations on the install.
Can I ask a question, or two? I'm not an electrician, but I am interested in how things are wired in different areas. Has that been passed by the building inspector? That looks like unprotected cable (service cable?) coming out of the gateway, but what do I know?
All the best,
BG
Installation of exposed electrical cable (be it on the utility side of the service disconnect, or the house side) is allowed under the NEC unless it is "exposed to physical damage". Much of the US (most of the East, I think) considers an install like that not to be "exposed to physical damage." On the West Coast apparently it is common for jurisdictions to consider any exposed cable like that "subject to physical damage." I guess we get a lot more axe-crazy passersby. : - )
Cheers, Wayne
Wow, I learned something here. I haven't seen our larger cables be sunlight resistant, but I am sure that is available, since we see it here.
My powerwall 3s.
The county passed it, but the power company hasn't come out yet.

I don’t remember seeing any stacking specifics on the spec sheet like there used to be for the PW2.

I was told when getting mine that it was 4 max and they could not be stacked due to the integrated inverters. I didn't ask specifically why the inverters prevent that though.

Tesla seems to have disabled the Gateway API on PW3, so the gateway screen in the app won't work unfortunately. If someone with a PW3 can confirm that the Tesla One (formerly Tesla Pros) app works, I can add support for that new API in the Netzero app.
It looks like there is a factory screen that covers this area. I wouldnt add anything for pest abatement.
The installers just hadn't installed it yet in your pictures.
Gotcha. I appreciate it, I had the assessment done today and am supposed to have a design within a couple weeks. We will see what they come back with.
Thanks for confirming. I'm able to get that data now, so should have an updated Netzero app soon.
I'm curious, how did you connect your PW3 to the Tesla One app? With a gateway or PW+ you'd scan the QR code behind the door, but from what I've seen PW3 has the QR code behind the door that's not easily detachable.
