So I’m having a little power outage in an Ausgrid NSW area.
My Powerwall 2 is pretty full (>80%) and keeping the lights, fridge and IT running.
However, as soon as the power went out the solar system switched itself off.
I wasn’t expecting this because I thought the Powerwall gateway would be wanting to supply the house and completely fill the battery before stopping generation.
I can understand that if I didn’t have the gateway the solar would go off as an anti-islanding measure for safety.
Is this just the way it is or have I got a configuration problem with either the gateway or the inverter.
Feel free to assume no prior knowledge and indeed ELI5 it.
