Possible Causes

Shared service with heavy loads (HVAC, range), Undersized service entrance, Loose service or panel connections, Long feeder run with voltage drop

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Service entrance issues must be handled by a licensed electrician or utility.

  • Observe pattern: Note which household loads cause flicker and whether charging is interrupted.
  • Measure voltage: With a meter, monitor line voltage at the Grizzl‑E while large loads cycle. Significant dips indicate supply issues.
  • Panel inspection: Have an electrician check for loose lugs or overloaded buses in the main panel.
  • Mitigation: Consider load management, upgrading service, or relocating the charger to a less loaded panel if voltage sag is severe.
