Connect the Wiring
Note: Consult with your local electrician or
refer to your local code for proper wire sizing
appropriate for the currents in your Wall
Connector.
Note: It is the installer's responsibility to
identify whether additional grounding is
required to ensure that local regulations are
met. Grounding must be installed at the power
source and not at the cable entry to the Wall
Connector.
Warning: Do not connect service wiring
until you have read and fully understand
the concepts described in Service Wiring
on page 7. If you are uncertain about the
type of power available at the service
panel, consult an electrician, or contact
Tesla for assistance.

Turn off the power.
Warning: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
Before continuing, use a voltmeter to
ensure the power is off by confirming
that NO VOLTAGE is present at the
service wiring or terminals.
2.
For top entry installation, pull the service
wiring into the top entry bracket or the
Wall Connector. Use a 1" (25 mm) cable
gland to seal the power conduit or cable.
For 80A operation, use 2AWG 194°F
(90°C) rated copper wire or follow local
regulations.
Note: The meaning of wiring colors might
vary from country to country. Follow all
applicable national and local regulations
concerning wiring color codes.
