HTML-код
  • Опубликовано: 13 май 2024
  • The Tesla Cybertruck has the ability to power your home in case of an electricity outage with a feature called Powershare. The full backup feature is waiting for a software update, but this video goes over the process of getting the equipment (Tesla Gateway and Universal Wall Charger) and having it installed by a Tesla certified electrician.
    The installation was completed by Car Charger Specialists in Atlanta:

    I live in the ATL and got mine installed last week. I got a banner in the Tesla app showing how to use Powershare. The option to turn it on showed up at the same time in the controls menu and in the vehicle. My Powershare works.

    So they ran Romex inside of your conduits?

    • @billjohnson3344
      @billjohnson3344 2 месяца назад +1

      Yeah, that run to to the charger doesn't look up to code. Looks indeed like Romex NM cable (likely 6/2). If so - two violations there - can't run Romex in conduit, and need THHN #6 for the 60A rated circuit. Running the communication cable in that conduit with the power is ok, but the power is suspicious - unless that is some special cabling.

    Do you know what size and type the communication wire is, I'm seeing on a search I see 22 gauge shielded twisted pair but can't really confirm that. The red wire you spoke of. I'm running the wire this weekend and want to run the right wire with the power it even though I don't have the gateway yet to be ready for my next tesla with powershare. thanks

    The Ford system does not work, and neither Ford, nor Sunrun will support it. *Possibly* if you have Sunrun install it, but then you have to deal with them putting screws through your livingroom wall. The equipment costs $6k, my install was $7k, and Ford charges you $500, "for the privilige".

    • @LifeOnTech

      Good information. I had no idea how the Ford system was set up and was wondering if it worked well

  • @thatkevinha
    @thatkevinha Месяц назад

    So just a few comments.
    1. The V2 Gateway and the 3-wire Gen 3 wall connector you mentioned are not compatible with PowerSharing unless you have the PowerWall system already installed and working.
    2. For a stand-alone setup (no other Tesla power systems in the house), you will need a 3V (yes, 3V, not a typo) gateway with a "neutral balancing transformer" that the PowerWall system normally provides.
    3. Additionally, you'll need the new (not available yet) 4-wire wall connector that can carry 12V power back to the 3V gateway when there's an outage (the current one is three-wire)
    This is my understanding.
    Yes, plus software that's not available yet.

    Great video. Very informative.
    I am getting my CT and will be using Powershare as a backup when we have power outage (which is rare here). Much cheaper than getting a PW3.
    Does the system switch to CT automatically if there is an power outage?

    I'm getting ready to have some PW2s mated to my Enphase PV system and my installer claims the Gateway 2 they have spec'd and the Gen 3 HPWC (I already have) will support future PowerSharing when Tesla enables other Tesla's to do the same. Is that correct? Or should I ask to have a Gateway 3V installed now?

  • @bluedrew
    @bluedrew 2 месяца назад

    Weird that you dont have it working now. Others in the forum have it going now. Maybe something hasn't updated right or a problem with commissioning.
    Also your 3V gateway and UWC are not required for thise with existing Powerwall and connector:
    For Customers with Powerwall
    If your home is equipped with Powerwall and home charging, you do not require any additional equipment. Powershare Home Backup functionality with Powerwall is expected to be available later this year through an over-the-air update. All AC Powerwall variants will be compatible with Powershare Home Backup in the future.
