Those wire spools and empty transformer pad need a hug

Maybe you could start checking twice a day instead of just once. Might speed it up.

Webcam was pretty cool in WIlliston, VT - watched the daily progression of the build up through utility hookup, Tesla commissioning and the a white Model S wandering in to become the first customer charger.

I have learned that a meter was installed yesterday at this Rocky Hill site, but I haven't confirmed it yet. I'll driving by that way anyway later tonight to verify.
Sadly, my source knows nothing about when the transformer might be arriving.

Pics taken yesterday late afternoon.
No more plastic wrap securing the cables, no more fenced-in wire spool area. New meter installed, but still no transformer.

So close...

Was in a bit of a hurry driving my mom from the dentist, and to my surprise, it’s happening right now, the transformer is being installed, so this site has some chance of actually going live before this Labor Day weekend of heavy travel on I-91.

And one of the supercharger cabinet doors appears to be ajar in the picture. If they're not on yet... No - don't do it.
