Supercharger - Granada Hills, CA (LIVE 24 Dec 2020, 16 V3 stalls)

[fern88]

Just drove by, fence is off so it looks really close to opening. Total number of chargers is 16. There are 2 on the other side

What's with the dented up Supercharger cabinets?

 

[tij664]

I’m sure they got damaged during shipping and construction crew is governed by the “not my problem” philosophy.

Drove by today. Looks as the have cleaned up and a worker was doing just landscaping. Spreading mulch.

 

[Jayooooo]

Any update?

You can park now but they haven't unwrapped our presents yet.

 

[Spacep0d]

Awesome! I look forward to this one. It's the second-closest to my place and I'm keen to try it out. It was fun using the one at the Simi Valley Target. Thanks to those who've been doing the scouting, picture-taking and reporting!

Drove by Saturday the 14th, yellow tape is gone but the chargers are still in shrink wrap.
Hopefully next week ?????

 

[JTesmod3]

Not much changed, wonder what the delay with the opening is

 

[NoSoup4U!]

Most likely permitting delays. County and city are still understaffed.

Looks like the cabinet vent screens have been repaired.

Anybody see a transformer?

^exactly what i've been wondering

 

[M0DEL J]

More than meets the eye..

All bundled up for the winter cold.. Let’s hope it doesn’t actually get that far with the covers on.

Mystery solved: no transformer yet.

How long do you think that will take? Don't know anything about this stuff

 

[tij664]

There’s no way of knowing but once LADWP schedules a transformer install it’s probably a day’s worth of work. I don’t foresee having a huge delay in procuring a transformer so it will probably arrive sooner than you think. Judging by other sites and utilities lately it seems there has not been a huge delay in getting transformers.

After transformer is installed, assuming all permits are good to go, then it should be live soon after.

Looks like this supercharger station will be getting a 34.5kV subtransmission feed rather than from the 4.8kV distribution grid, which makes sense given 4.8kV's relatively low capacity.
The other superchargers in LADWP's service area will probably ending up being served at 34.5kV as well, I'd guess.

The new Bishop, CA site (apparently also served by LADWP) has a similar hookup:
