Hi All
Hoping or some help.
I have EmonCMS measuring current into my HA dash including the built-in Energy Component.
Works flawlessly.
We have bad loadshedding here in South Africa (when they turn off power grids to free up demand on the electricity network, more consumption than output capacity).
I Have my lights all integrated and am able to control them perfectly.
I am trying to automate that when the main power in (Wh) either = 0 or >5 then switch off all lights.
I cant find the correct trigger, have tried all the options I can think of.
The Mains Power Entity reports the Wh as a variable STATE.
Here is my last attempt in YML:
alias: "Light off when loadshedding "
description: Turn off all lights when mains power goes off
trigger:
- platform: state
entity_id:
- sensor.emoncms_mains
to: "0"
condition: []
action:
- service: light.turn_off
data: {}
target:
area_id:
- entrance
- guest_bathroom
- kids_room
- kitchen
- living_room
- veranda
mode: single
Any help would be great....
