Awesome, does it have a meter attached to it?

No meter yet. I checked again today

As mentioned above, the HV lines haven't been run in yet, so a meter would be meaningless at this point.

Almost ready! Looking forward to seeing more Teslas coming to visit. (Fitting that the BC Hydro crew was playing G&R "Paradise City" on the stereo...)

Man this needs to be done, I might have to go down this weekend.... really dont wanna spend hours in creston.

 

[Venom21]

So is this getting turned on or what?

No meter yet. Lines are run, so my guess all that’s left is meter install, and final inspection by Tesla Supercharger personnel to turn it on

Waxed (skis) and Vaxed (me), and heading this way soon.

The 4 superchargers along hwy 3 all look really far along. I hope they are operational soon! Would be nice for summer road trips

After April 1st (no not a prank) I think you get to skip the test if your vaxd. There is an arrive can app, don't know if Americans have to use it.... Sorry so many changes all the time.

Yeah the tests were such a nuisance last summer, mostly because you have to sweat getting the result in time to meet the 72 hour threshold. Canadian border guy seemed to think I was suspicious for crossing in at 3am, but he laughed when my response was "Hey I didn't make this stupid 72 hour rule!"

Contractors on site today changing out a supercharger cabinet as tesla had sent them the wrong one. They said by end of day the contractors will be all done and it will all be in BC Hydros court. Meter box has been installed aswell, but no meter yet. He said it should be done soon but doesn’t know exactly when, and had no info on Creston, castlegar or Fernie as different contractors have been building them.

 

[tmoz]

It'll be nice to see those 4 sites operational.

 

[Utah John]

Not quite yet. It would be nice to grab a charge on my way back from Lake Louise.

BC hydro was on site again today. Talked to the crews and they didn’t give me any information on when the station will be done, but they were inside the green box hooking up the wires. They said after they are finnished, all that is left is Tesla to do final inspection and it should be online. I will keep everyone Up to date and hopefully they will have the meter installed by end of day.

If the supercharger goes online by 7am Wednesday, my route back to Utah goes through Cranbrook.

We're all rooting for you.
