Shelly EM arrived yesterday and took about 10 minutes to install and configure. Super easy! And I’m not dead.
For some reason there is no video showing the install on a US style panel and most show the European style.
That being said if you remove the panel door and cut the main power breaker, you would connect “L” to one of the breakers(I used a less utilized 20amp single breaker). Just add the wire to whatever is already plugged in there. I connected “N” to the neutral bus (the vertical rod on either side of the panel with lots of white wires screwed in). The clamp wires are pretty clear in the diagram and it goes around the main wire going to the top of the panel, the direction is important and indicated on the clamp but pretty easy to fix if you get it wrong (it will show a negative reading and you just need to turn it around). That was it, put the panel door back on, fire up and configure as per the instructions. Home assistant auto discovered it.
How many amps is your panel? Is it 240v? I have 200A service with two hot legs (to support both 120 and 240v loads). I see the EM has a 120A limit.
I have 200A with 2 service lines as well. You would need 2 clamps at 120A each, I wrote more here:
Thanks! Will give it a go. Thought about SDR but looked at the meter here in Westchester county and it’s (Silverstream Networks) not on the lists. Research seems to indicate it may be encrypted as well.
Coincidence, in Westchester county as well!
just FYI, there is a new feature request to use the smart meters of the local electricity providers, such as ConEd, to Home Assistant.
See Why buy energy monitor devices -- Use data from Smartmeter!
BTW guys I found this Home Assistant addon for ConEd/Oru. But for some reason I wasn’t able to pull data from ConEd. If you’re lucky you may able to do it.
+1 for someone looking to get data out of coned and into HA. Tried all 3 options with no luck, getting quite a few errors on both of bvlaicu’s versions and the oru community addon with 2 active users
UPDATE: Through 'bvlaicu’s addon, I was able to retrieve data from ConEd at last. Even though the setup took me the entire evening, I’m pleased with how it ended out. Just a quick reminder that it’s not real time or even close to it. I noticed there’s 3 hours delay.
Congratulations and this is amazing!
I had a tough time figuring out how to find the account_uuid. Can you help me (and all of us here) figure out where you get that string? Thank you so much.
Thank you! that’s where I spent most of my time integrating this. Then I found solution here: Issue trying to find Account UUID · Issue #8 · bvlaicu/coned (github.com)
If you need more help let me know.
@chintito4ever gratulation that you made it to work to get the data from ConEd.
I am also trying to use the add-on from bvlaicu, but I am constantly getting errors. See the logs below.
I am wondering if you had similar issues and how you solved it?
Any tip you can give?
Thx, Sebastian

I’m getting the same errors in my log after “Starting endless loop…” Anyone solve this yet? Thanks!
I was able to get this to work today with ConEd (Brooklyn), thanks for the tips!!
edit: there’s a time delay in the data that seems not to work so well with HA’s energy monitoring, which expects live data. A friend of mine setup a project that does a similar thing but just to store the data in a MySQL instance and then you can graph it via Grafana or something similar: GitHub - mhoran/coned-rtu: Getting real-time usage reports from Con Edison
Thanks, I’ll check that project out. I have bvlaicu’s working well, but I want to grab the gas usage as well (even though it is delayed.)
Was also able to get this working via bvlaicu’s integration. Was anyone able to get live costing ($/kWh) data in as well or just going with a flat rate?
Can folks who got this working share their logs? I would like to see what went wrong in my config. It’s been a year of this not working.

Has anyone validated the accuracy of the data?
It appeared to work for me too, but if you compare it to the ConEd app/website, it is way under.
I believe it misses one or more updates per hour, so I had to stop using it.
From what I remember, ConEd has the data per 15 minute increments and I think that add-on would error out sometimes and not retry, so it misses some data.
I have the same experience. In my case, it is maybe ~1 out of 8 times successful downloading the reading from ConEd. I also raised an issue here: Inconsistant meter reading · Issue #14 · bvlaicu/coned · GitHub. But no update yet.
Hi. Another ConEd customer here. How did you power the EM itself? My breaker box is behind a panel in the kitchen, so not conducive (conductive?) to running a power cord to it. Obviously lots of 110 is in the breaker box, but hardwiring it for power supply likely isn’t up to code. I’d welcome any recommendations. Thanks.
