System Operation

Powerwall systems provide control and monitoring capability through the Tesla app. During normal operation, Powerwall 3 communicates with Backup Gateway 2, Gateway 3, or Backup Switch, and the Powerwall 3 On/Off switch should remain in the ON position. When troubleshooting Powerwall 3 operation, it may be necessary to turn off Powerwall 3 or refer to its LED indicator to confirm that it is operating properly.
