Questions about EV backup power problems

Why isn't my bidirectional charger supplying power to my home for Bidirectional charging system troubleshooting?

A transfer switch fault can stop power from reaching your home, and GMB Electric can assess the cause. Other possible causes include battery settings, a communication cable problem or an inverter fault. The symptom alone doesn't identify the failed part. We'll discuss what you noticed and assess the system before recommending electrical work.

What should I tell you about a charger warning?

The warning message and the failed power function give us useful details. Save the message as it appears, and tell us whether the vehicle still charges from the property. Let us know if the problem happened during backup use. That context helps us focus the assessment on the symptom you want addressed.

Which access should I arrange before the visit for Bidirectional charging system troubleshooting?

Access to the charger and electrical panel helps us assess the system. Let us know about locked areas or other access limits when you request the visit. You don't need to open electrical equipment yourself. We'll discuss the access needed for the assessment and handle the electrical checks.

Can the electrical fault be repaired during the same visit?

The repair depends on the fault we find and the work it requires. We'll explain the findings and discuss the repair scope with you. An assessment may identify an issue with the electrical connections or another part of the system. We'll give you a basis for deciding on the next work.

When should I stop using equipment near a burning smell?

A burning smell near electrical equipment can signal a fire risk, so we recommend keeping away from the equipment. Don't touch the panel or charger, and move to a safe place. If there's immediate danger, call emergency services. Tell us about the smell when you request electrical help.

How should I compare the proposed charging system work?

The proposed work should identify the fault being addressed and the electrical work under consideration. Ask us to explain the findings and the scope before you agree to proceed. You can also ask what the estimate covers. That gives you a clearer basis for your decision about the charging system.
