I stopped by over the weekend and there still wasn't a meter installed. The Model S was gone as well.Headed up there today will update with likely no change
Will the Black Model S that's plugged into a Supercharger that doesn't charge still be there? Stay tuned!
I have put an inquiry in with Deptford Township for some answers. Once I hear anything I'll post an update. This is just crazy at this point. It's been ready to go for months.
I live in Deptford just down the street from the mall, I'll start doing regular stops and update you all. I'll also be putting an inquiry in with the township.
No response from Deptford Township yet. Seems like no one knows what's going on.
For ideas on what's holding things up, there's a couple of possibilities. My best guesses are:
- There's an easement issue or they are waiting on approvals to access a Right Of Way to run the cables to the power lines. In the majority of cases I'm familiar with where the site is done but sits waiting for a (comparatively) really long time for the utility transformer and activation, this seems to have been what's behind it.
- There is a dispute between Tesla and the contractor who built the location and work won't recommence or be finished until it is resolved.

Usually meter==powered but it’s very clear from that picture it’s not receiving any power. Very odd.
This whole location is odd. Normally the meter would be reading something, in this case it isn't.
I don’t think that’s that unusual. I don’t think it’s always the case that meter == power on because first you have to install the meter, then you turn on power to the meter, then you turn on power to the stalls.
but I would say it would be reasonable to expect this to be up and running within 30 days now.
I don’t know a realistic timeline but I agree is has to be soonish considering the following:
•utility meter installed
•one of the most important steps of finalizing the set up within the past few days
•Tesla put it on “in-car nav” as temp closed (I know this was a couple of weeks ago but it’s still and indication that Tesla is 100% ready for this to be turned on)
I assume once the meter is in they just have to allow power to be turned on to the cabinets and stalls like lensovet said.

The meter is owned by the utility. Generally, the meter itself is the switch to connect the utility to the customer equipment.
That makes sense. I think everyone is happy this is going to finally come online. Once I see everything is up and running I'll report back here when there is updates.

I think we can all agree that it looks like its opening is finally immanent. (Will I regret those words lol?)
