The full video will be coming when everything is fully commissioned. But until then… Happy times.
Some quick questions, answered:
1) Yes, this is a new system. We’ve paying for the Ford system outright and the SPAN panel is on review (we’re paying for installation).
2) We’ve not made any videos on this yet. They will be made ONCE the system is fully installed and commissioned.
3) There’s no (repeat NO) smart grid connectivity between the Ford Home Integration System and the SPAN panel. For NOW, the SPAN panel will not automatically switch things off to prioritize loads when the power is off, but we’re hoping at some point (with a little help from 3rd parties) that’s possible EVENTUALLY.
4) Our heat pumps WILL be backed up, but the server room will not. Since the server room is currently running on a single circuit and pulling 1.5 kW, we can power that using an extension cord if required. 😉
