Looks like the site is waiting for concrete. Also it looks like the reason for the construction delays can likely be confirmed as a gas line going through the site given what’s coming up out of the ground near the transformer pad and along the side of the supercharger post trench.
Posts up and supercharger equipment placed in pads. Not sure if the wiring has been done. Maybe. Still needed is a transformer and meter, and some dressing on the pole. Also site cleanup and striping. No Magic Docs here.
Sung by today. Site is done - cleaned up and all equipment gone. Waiting for transformer and pole work.
My thinking is that due to the mid-job delays it was taken off of Eversource's schedule, so when it resumed it was added back, but at the bottom of the list at the time. But who knows.
Stopped by today - primary wires have been run from the pole to transformer pad, but that's it. Progress, and perhaps an indication the rest of the work could happen soon.
Transformer and utility connection complete! No meter. Could also need the contractor to come back to do secondary wiring if they didn’t get that done already this past week. Could be up very soon.
But this I don’t understand…

That is hilarious. The current status is waiting for Tesla Techs to review and test the subcontractor's work. All lines are in from the poles to the transformer. Tesla wired the transformer to the 3 supercharges (that supply 4 "chargers" each).
Sorry... I park my Y there too... just to be funny... (but I don't cable it)

I swung by Thursday afternoon and wanted to share this observation - the primaries, although fully wired, still need their fuses added to make the connection to the transformer live. A meter is also still needed. The fact that these are not there suggests it's possible we could still be waiting for the contractor to come back to do the secondary wiring from the transformer to the Tesla switchgear. Of course it's also just as likely that work has been completed and we're now waiting for Eversource to return to add the meter and fuses.
They are live! Just charged my Telsa Y. Best Turkish food & pizza slices next door.
