I would like to be able to select a “parent” for each (energy measuring) device.
Displaying only on “group or device” clutters the screen too much - too mny lines on top of eachother.
I would like to have a stacked graph where each child is displayed within its parent.
The “non measure” on a lower level can then be displayed.
I have 5 levels of energy consumption measuring and it is a real pain to identify where the energy usage is comming from.
Level 1: I have a P1 smart reader and a SolarEdge inverter. So I know what my total consumption and production is. I then have 3 Shelly Pro 4PMs. Level 2: Each 4PM has 4 channels so I can measure my power usage per function or per a specific area in my house. In some rooms I have a Shelly 2.5 build inside the wall so I can measure the energy usage in a specific room. And level 4: I have Shelly Plugs in order to measure one or multiple devices at a time. And Level 5: Some devices measure their own power usage.
Seems fairly resonable that someone might have utility consumption, breaker panel consumption, outlet consumption and maybe device consumption IE up to 4 levels of break down (probably more often 2-3).
would be nice if the “native” energy dashboard would be able to subtract merge child consumption with the parent to create one detailed breakdown.
At the moment I have utility level consumption and outlet level consumption I am considering adding breaker panel monitoring for large draw devices like my water heater but that is going to likely create more overlap with my outlets etc.
It is nice there is an option like sankey chart but I have a feeling that at least 2 levels of consumption parent and child be that utility or panel at the top and device / outlet below would not be that uncommon for someone into energy monitoring.
