Aeotec Home Energy Meter Gen5, Z-Wave Plus Smart Electricity Usage Monitor, Report Real Time Power Consumption, 1 Clamp, Detect up to 60 amps for Single Phase System

Product Information

Voltage is always staying around 240V ±5V without solar power production (during the problematic period, too), and those fluctuations are far bigger, so again I didn’t think it’s important.

I've been told I need a CT clamp based monitor but the recommended products (OWL Micro+ and OWL +USB) don't seem to be available. I do not have the device to test this (I gifted it in a reddit giveaway), but please add this to your Zigbee2MQTT configuration. At the time of writing, Aeotec do not offer any HEM units that are compatible with Aussie standards.

EDIT: I realised solar should be unaffected since the current flow from the intverted is not influenced by the house load. Embrace Elegance: Explore the beauty of creating sophisticated smart setups that prioritize simplicity, ensuring daily operations are a breeze for all. Weather-Wise Automations: Learn how your home can intuitively adjust to Mother Nature, from closing windows when it rains to optimizing temperature. I found that I needed to calibrate the bottom end of the sensor slightly too because it was picking up some interference and reporting about 60 amps when nothing was connected, so my lower end calibration value is actually 0. The spikes do appear in the messages messages as valid data (start with OK, proper number of fields).

We were on oil but to meet the whole house cals building regs we needed to use a green heating system. Enhance Security: Elevate your home’s security with automated alerts, making sure you're always in the know. I can only think of some peculiar wire arrangement in the box above the test hook that influences measurements when the CT is placed in certain positions… I’m now using simple cloth clips for holding the CTs on the side to avoid future problems. Inter-Technology Harmony: Dive into real-life scenarios that showcase how different technologies can coexist and complement each other, amplifying your smart home's potential. Also its designed to work on your meter tails, which are 16mm or 25mm cables near your electric meter or main fuse, trying to measure very small currents will probably not work so well e.And its intelligent clamps will report that energy use back to your control point, in watts or kilowatt-hours, and in real time, so you can see how much electricity you really use and when you use it.

This works for me, and having lurked on here for nearly 4 years and learned so much from you all, this was a chance to put back. I plan to use EmonCMS (EmonSD on a Pi3 to be accurate), but for now I conducted my tests using a small shell script pushing data from the EmonTX to a Zabbix monitoring system. I tried to describe the simple wire that forms something that looks like the letter U and hangs from the junction box.It doesn't work an any cable because it uses the magnetic field around the cable to calculate the current flow. The clamp detects one load / circuit and reports the real-time power consumption to your Z-Wave smart home control gateway. Not wanting to be too technical, but most homes throughout the world (excluding the USA and Canada) have "single" phase electricity: that is one live and one neutral connection to the mains supply. Automate Your Home: With our smart energy monitor, you can easily automate your home appliances and devices. Monitor consumption of your whole home or generated electricity from solar panels with a one of its kind WiFi-operated energy meter with contactor control functionality.
