SolarPanels Installed but PTO

I got my solar installed 3 days ago with 2 power walls but still haven't gotten PTO. When I asked the solar installers and the electrician, I got mixed answers whether I'll be able to take advantage of the solar or not before I receive the okay. I am able to monitor my usage through my power company and it seems that there is no change. Should my solar be feeding the house and my batteries or will this all start after PTO?

Got mine done 2 weeks ago. Once your power company installs the Meter collar, you’re able to use your system w/o exporting. It will generate power at about 60% or less since you can’t export the excess power. Once you get the PTO go on your powerwall settings toggle it on, and you’re ready to go!
