Ready to Activate?
Congratulations! Your solar is ready to be activated! We wanted to thank you for choosing Sunlink Energy and let you know that it's officially time to flip the switch on your system.
Once the system is on, you’ll be able to monitor your production and performance using your Tesla monitoring app. Please note that Sunlink only monitors your panels for the first 24 hours to ensure everything powers up properly. After that, it’s up to you to keep an eye on your system's performance using the app.
Activation Instructions
Note that activation must be done during daylight hours
01
In your main service panel, turn your solar breaker into the ON position. (Skip this step if there is no solar breaker, common in TX)
02
Find your AC Disconnect(s). This is a gray box with a black lever on the right and you may have more than one. Raise the lever(s) into the ON position.

Keep your contract handy: You’ll need it for your CPA when filing taxes for incentives.
Call your home insurance provider: Let them know solar has been installed and confirm coverage.
