I have recently got Tesla MY and had wall connector installed from old Main panel. Tesla moved all the controls to new panel and kept the old one as backup relay when they installed solar + powerwall.
I already have Tesla solar panel + 1 power wall. But unfortunately Tesla guys did not add any breaker switches for wall connector though I told them I will be buying a electric car soon. then, I found a local electrician and he added two breaker switches to old Main Electrical panel and said it would use the solar power first then power wall and then finally from grid if other sources does not have enough energy.
But based on my usage I found its always taking it from grid and not from solar or power wall. So when I asked my electrician he can move the breaker switches to new panel ( have dryer switches and not used as I have gas dryers). He is saying additional $170 for fixing that.
On a side, I reached out to Tesla and asked why they did not add breaker switches for car as I specifically mentioned I will be buying car soon and they are saying it depends on the system design and system size only they can add breaker switches. Now they can install for very high cost like $1500 and if other technician touches the new panel then tesla solar systems warranty will be void or something. Any help appreciated how to use the solar then power wall for my car charging when energy is available then on the grid ( just like entire home is using), night times it uses from power wall. Any input/experience would be appreciated.
