ACS712 Current Sensor 9 (how to!?!?)

Installation Home Assistant OS
1

Hello there,
I`ve been looking for a way to integrate ACS712 current sensor and have it trigger a couple of automations and update statuses, but I havent had any success when looking for the component to integrate into the configurations.yaml file.
I have it wired up through a MCP3008 converter…
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Regards,

I have one on a wemos D1 with mqtt and using mqtt sensor in configuration yaml

Is that on Hass.Io? Would that be too much to ask for a screenshot of this part of your configuration file (excuding what`s private, of course)?

Greetings from Brazil!

No it’s not on Hass.io. I will add that part of my yaml for you shortly

Hi

Im looking at monitoring the voltage and current of a 12vdc circuit upto 20/30amps. Will this achieve this? Do you have schematic diagrams for wiring etc?

Any help would be appreciated

Cheers
