Hi all,
I’m trying to figure out the energy dashboard without success…
Finally installed the correct hardware to read out my solar panels, but when adding the sensor to my dashboard i get a HUGE data spike for the first hour. I don’t mind on a day-to-day basis, but it spoils my monthly and yearly data.
I have figured out why, and it’s because the data one hour before adding the sensor is basically 0 (because it had no data prior to me adding the sensor). Meaning the energy dashboard takes the difference every hour, which results in this big spike.
The next day my data is fine, as expected:
What I’ve tried:
Looking into the DB, I can DELETE the first row of this data, but it just shifts the ‘problem’ one hour.
The sensor itself is configured as following, which should be OK I think?
state_class: total_increasing
meter_type: 1
meter_type_name: ELECTRIC
unit_of_measurement: kWh
device_class: energy
friendly_name: 'Qubino 3-Phase Smart Meter: Electric Production [kWh]'
last_reset: '1970-01-01T00:00:00+00:00'
Sooo, any tips on how I can trick my HASS as to not report such a spike in data?
It’s not quite similar to the other issues being reported of sensors sometimes reporting “0”, I think.
Any advice is welcomed!
