I installed a CircuitSetup Energy Meter using the 9v PS and added 4 circuits. Two are around my mains feed. However, the energy display barely shows any kWh being used displaying the Total kWh device. Do I need to give the board some 120V access?
Hello,
9V power supply AC or DC?
You need 9VAC
I used the one the CircuitSetup website sold me as I bought the PS and Energy meter together.
Hi,
I suppose that the clamp are around the phase L.
What clamp are you using?
Burden resistor is correct?
WIth a 240VAC main, I have sensors on both L1 and L2 each a SCT-016 120A. I modified the YAML for the correct calibration value for these sensors.
The ESPHome YAML provided by CircuitSetup should already have voltage sensors provided, and they are used in the power calculations. What do your sensors say the voltage is? Example:
When you loaded ESPHome, did you use this? CircuitSetup ESPHome Installer
If not, what does your config look like? Something doesn't seem right with "Main Line Voltage". The meter calculates wattage, volts x amps x pf, and voltage is very low, which is why kWh is so low.
