Determine Whether High Impedance Mode is Needed

Select Do I need this? if unsure whether to toggle on High Impedance Mode. Tesla One will detect the number of Powerwalls on-site and ask whether the Electric Service Size is above or below a certain threshold to determine whether to recommend High Impedance Mode.

Electric Service Size Calculation

Tesla One will recommend the overrides if the electric service size is ≤ 40A per Powerwall per phase.

Examples:

  • 4x Powerwalls on a 200A connection: Override not recommended, because there is 50A per Powerwall
  • 5x Powerwalls on a 200A connection: Override recommended, because there is 40A per Powerwall
