Title is pretty much it! Finally had the main meter swapped today for solar panel PTO with no notice, of course. Saw the microwave blinking, went outside to check, woohoo, digital meter!
Let my Tesla guy know, he will check for PTO, since nothing left by the crew.
Then GF gets home and texts me, can you open garage door? WTF. After manually opening the door and then much checking on popped GFCIs, etc, looks like the spike of replacing the meter blew the power board in the door opener.
I’ll call the guys that installed it later today but:
Any chance in getting the power company to pay for this? Tesla thinks they will blame it on coincidence.
Why can’t they let you know so you can pull the main breaker when swapping meters. Be happy to. Can’t tbink ripping out the meter is a good idea surge-wise unless there’s no other choice.
