Energy -> Individual Devices and Grid Consumption

Energy
1

I try to track and monitor individual devices as consumption and have in the Grid calculated the actual cost.

When I create the calculation helpers in the Grid I cannot link to them as upstream from individual devices.

If I add the helpers in individual devices so I can link them as upstream from other devices and then add them to the grid I get exponentially wrong values.

How can I link the individual devices

to grid consumption

so I can deal with complicated meter plans the way I can do in the Grid entities?

This just isn’t supported.

You’re not supposed to add individual devices to the grid section, and any attempt to do so will just mess up the overall calculations.

How should I do it then?

I want to be able to have the individual devices comsumption like this (works awesome)

but my summary is empty if I don’t add anything to the grid.

  1. How can I use individual devices consumption tracking and still have summary?
  2. How can I do cost estimation in this scenario?
