2 new questions:
- can we name children? Didn’t find anything
- this is my config:
type: custom:sankey-chart
show_names: true
height: 400
round: 2
wide: true
sections:
- entities:
- entity_id: sensor.shelly_3em_power_total
name: Watt_total
remaining:
name: Other
children:
- sensor.espressomaschine_power
- sensor.server_power
- sensor.heizung_strom_power
- sensor.studio_power_2
- sensor.kuhlmess_power
- sensor.freezer_power
- sensor.tv_power
- sensor.trockner_power
- sensor.spulmaschine_power
- sensor.wallbox_watt
- entities:
- entity_id: sensor.server_power
name: Server
remaining:
name: Other
children:
- sensor.ups_watt
- entities:
- sensor.espressomaschine_power
- sensor.server_power
- sensor.heizung_strom_power
- sensor.studio_power_2
- sensor.kuhlmess_power
- sensor.freezer_power
- sensor.tv_power
- sensor.trockner_power
- sensor.spulmaschine_power
- sensor.wallbox_watt
works fine in general, but not the children part. sensor.ups_watt should be a child of sensor.server_power, but the “remaining” “other” part is never shown. Instead it looks like this
Is it because sensor.ups_watt is not a sensor, but a template? (excuse me if using the wrong nomenclature). Everywhere else sensor.ups_watt works fine.
in configuration.yaml it is defines like this:
- sensor:
- name: "UPS_Watt"
unique_id: UPS_Watt
state: >-
{{ (states('sensor.myups_output_voltage')|float(0) * states('sensor.myups_output_current')|float(0))}}
unit_of_measurement: W
device_class: power
state_class: measurement
I think everything that is listed under children needs to also be listed again later under an - entities. That should also let you name the children.

Really like this card as well!
Only thing I am struggling is with the coulouring scheme. Could anyone give me a hint how to use it?
I am used to Hex, RGB or CMYK, but never encountered this (var--xyz) scheme…
You don’t have to use that format for the color - you can stick to the simpler color: blue type settings. If you want a more specific color or only colors in certain circumstances then you can get fancier with it.

Those are color variables defined in the theme.yaml. Here is example f this file content:
dark-background: "#1C1E2E" #var(--dark-background)
medium-background: "#242635" #var(--medium-background)
light-background: "#2C2E3C" #var(--light-background)
components-background: "#242635" #var(--components-background)
bright-text: "#ffffff" #var(--bright-text)
dimmed-text: "#A4A7B4" #var(--dimmed-text)
dark-text: "#444856" #var(--dark-text)
cyan-text: "#1bbfff" #var(--cyan-text)
alert-text: "#CD1015" #var(--alert-text)
The first column shows actual definitions of different interface components, the second one displays as comment variable to be used to use specific color in the UI. For this matter you can define in your theme additional colors, that are not specific to UI elements, but also can be used same way. Here is sample of color palette I’m using in my theme:
orange1: "#F5A624"
orange2: "#DBBC09"
orange3: "#AB6D09"
orange4: "#784E07"
orange5: "#452F05"
orange6: "#121003"
Please note that not all cards accpt variables as color definition, though…

Thanks a lot! Now I understand the sysstem.
Did anyone got it working with the children naming?
Tried it with different options via the children part or in the entities part, but nothing seems to work (or is miss something).
For example:
children:
- sensor.shellyplug01_power
name: test plug
- sensor.shellyplug02_power
- sensor.shellyplug03_power
- sensor.shellyplug04_power
- sensor.shellyplug05_power
- entities:
- sensor.shellyplug01_power
name: test plug
- sensor.shellyplug02_power
- sensor.shellyplug03_power
- sensor.shellyplug04_power
- sensor.shellyplug05_power
The names will always go under the - entity_id: sensor.my_sensor.
Here’s my current config, hopefully it’ll be a bit clearer:
type: custom:sankey-chart
title: Realtime Power
show_names: true
min_box_height: 8
sections:
- entities:
- entity_id: sensor.breaker_panel_electric_consumption_w

remaining:

- entity_id: sensor.washer_electric_consumption_w
name: Washer
- entity_id: sensor.network_rack_electric_consumption_w
name: Network Rack

Just starting to play with this amazing looking card, but not getting the fill in effect and flow displaying. I’ve tweaked my sensors so that they’re all in a similar range of each other, in case the line couldn’t be drawn because of huge variation in value, but I can’t get it to display the flows.

@Fayrewood wherever you have a sensor listed as a child, you also have to list it again under a subsequent -entities and - entity_id:. Also, it doesn’t look like you have your fridges listed as children anywhere, so you’ll need to add those in as children under one of the other entities.

Hi Tom.
This is a fantastic (!) layout and exactly what I’m trying to establish. Are each of the cards in the screenshot above a separate sankey card in the dashboard view, or is it a single sankey card with code?
One Sankey card and the others are mini-graph cards.
Has anyone worded out how to use the remaining_child/parent options in the recent update?
I’ve been banging my head against it for hours getting nowhere.

BTW, “Annet” is just Norwegian for “Other”
1.0.0 Live power consumption - remaining not working?
Hi, the new way of using “Other” is working fine for me in the Sankey charts where I use data mainly from Utility Meters.
However, I have one chart with live consumption where the remaining is always redicculously low. It’s the one named “Annet” in the attachment.
I have noticed the one from VP (heatpump) is in kWh/h while the rest are in kW, but I tried removing it and it did not change the others (“Annet”) bit.

Actually, yeah that is what I am seeing too. I thought it was that only the last section worked but the common factor seems to be power:
Hi everyone. I am the creator of the card and just discovered this thread.
As expected there is some problem with the new calculations since v1 . I am working on reproducing it
