Supercharger - Ontario, OR

The piles of dirt are gone, but still no meter

Went by yesterday, everything is cleaned up but still no power.

Oh, well that's some progress. They got the parking stoppers mounted and filled in the blacktop around the pedestals. So I do wonder if the construction contracting portion of this is done, and it may be at the stage waiting for the Tesla tech to come turn it on and test it.

There is no meter, looks like Idaho Power is next

Or maybe the Oregon power company, since this is technically in Oregon. Not sure what the name of that company is though. I think this has to be one of the longest under construction charges for Tesla to date.

Ontario is served by Idaho Power as is most of Malheur county.

What part didn't pass

. I think this has to be one of the longest under construction charges for Tesla to date.

Not even close, more than 70 sites in the US and Canada have taken longer. Four sites currently under construction have taken longer.

That's what's so great about the phrase "one of the longest". It's never wrong because it's so unspecific. It could be one of the list of the 1,500 sites that took the longest.

Says next inspection 8/31/2020. Looks like a missing GFPE (Ground Fault Protection Equipment) report.

 

[MN-MS100D]

Contractor maybe missed the ground fault module on the main breaker, which can be field-installed if it it an electronic trip unit (which it most likely is at that size). Arc flash reduction switch is more difficult to maneuver around Code-wise, but other options that don't require changing out the breaker exist.

Power is not on. Probably waiting for tesla tech. to do the final testing.

Ontario supercharger should be online by this evening.

Pics? Just so they can update it to “open” on supercharge.info

The phrase "pics or it didn't happen" has never been more applicable than it is on these forums.

Also, if someone is able to check their car it can show up pretty quickly there. When I was anxiously awaiting Burley to finish up, someone confirmed it on here and within an hour or so it was already showing up in the Nav system.

What kind of pictures do you want. I will go down there when is get s a little dark and take a picture to show the lit-up stations. Unless you have a better way to show they are operational. Right now, I am less than a mile away.
