I agree with what you said but it seems you may have meant to reply to a different comment. Independence is another topic, certainly related somewhat, although it didn’t come up in my comment... interesting nonetheless.

Actually I did. I interpreted the limited outage from point 2 as the supplier not being delivering power for a short period. If that were to happen in a normal situation here the regulation says your sources have to cut off as well. Unless you install some additional gear.

So without additional Equipment just having solar and a power wall wouldn’t help during outages.

Nighttime is another situation in which the supplier does not deliver power, at least for solar.

Yes you need cords, appliances, and other equipment, including extra equipment if you are not connected to the grid, that is a given.
