- On the Energy Dashboard, is it possible to group the total for ‘Individual Devices Detail Usage’ by different areas, such as ‘Home’ or ‘Vacation Home’?
- How can you identify ‘untracked consumption’ ?
It’s not tracked, which means HA knows about it only from whatever you configured as the main energy sensor for the whole system, but there are no sensors in the system that showed spending this much energy. So the system doesn’t know what used it and where.
Example, to make it hopefully clearer:
- Let’s say I have one sensor that takes days from my main energy meter. This I set up in HA as energy consumption (the option at the top of config page, not on the individual devices).
- I have a few energy sensors configured in the individual devices they track my EV, my washing machine and my fridge.
- The total energy usage today in my whole house is 10 kWh. Out of that 5 kWh were used by my EV charging, nothing by the washing machine and 1 kWh by the fridge. 2 kWh were used by my PC and another 2 kWh by lights and all other devices in my house.
- Since I don’t have a sensor for my PC and the remaining devices in my house, HA can only tell me there were 4 kWh (10 if the total minus 6 used by the known devices) used by untracked sources.
