Frient Electricity Meter Interface2 (EMIZB-141)

Hi HA community,

in my setup ZHA is running with the Conbee II. I managed to pair the device well and a power sensor is created. But the values are completely wrong because my electricity meter works with 10000 imp/kWh. And I can not find the value pulse configuration unfortunately.

Does anyone know how to change the pulse rate?

Mine is working correctly (1000 pulses pr. kWh). But I had a look around, and if you go to Manage Zigbee Device, select “Clusters”, then “Metering” in the first drop-down, there’s an attribute called “divisor”. It’s 1000 on mine. It seems you can change it there.

thank you for your support but unfortunately i already tried that and i can’t change the attribute. if i set the value to 10000 it returns to 1000 after reopening to check the value.

I have found the following detailed data sheet: https://www.develcoproducts.com/media/5110/emizb-141-technical-manual.pdf. According to this data sheet, the pulse configuration is done in manufacturer specific attributes.

With zha_toolkit, I managed to read and edit the pulse configuration.

read:

service: zha_toolkit.attr_read
data:
  ieee: <your address>
  cluster: 0x0702
  attribute: 0x0300
  manf: 0x1015

write (to 500):

service: zha_toolkit.attr_write
data:
  ieee: <your address>
  cluster: 0x0702
  attribute: 0x0300
  attr_type: 0x21
  manf: 0x1015
  attr_val: 500

But now the meter is always sending 0 as instantaneous demand…

The solution I settled for is to have some template sensors which calculate the correct values. I have to multiply by two, since I get 500 pulses/kWh. This sensors can then be integrated into energy dashboard and wherever else you want to have it.

Adapt and add to your configuration.yaml

template:
  - sensor:
    - name: "Instantaneous demand fixed"
      state_class: "measurement"
      device_class: "power"
      unit_of_measurement: "W"
      state: "{{ states('sensor.original_power_meter_instantaneous_demand')|float * 2 }}"
      availability: "{{ is_number(states('sensor.original_power_meter_instantaneous_demand')) }}"
  - sensor:
    - name: "Summation fixed"
      device_class: "energy"
      state_class: "total_increasing"
      unit_of_measurement: "kWh"
      state: "{{ states('sensor.original_power_meter_summation_delivered')|float * 2 }}"
      availability: "{{ is_number(states('sensor.original_power_meter_summation_delivered')) }}"

I’m not the original poster, but I used the template above with minor changes and IT WORKS!
I’m very glad I can now track my consumption even though my meter LED is 10000 imp/kWh.
THANK YOU @charno.
Here’s the final code:

template:
  - sensor:
    - name: "Instantaneous demand fixed"
      unique_id: "ydwRwMattmg"
      state_class: "measurement"
      device_class: "power"
      unit_of_measurement: "W"
      state: "{{ states('sensor.frient_a_s_emizb_141_instantaneous_demand')|float / 10 }}"
      availability: "{{ is_number(states('sensor.frient_a_s_emizb_141_instantaneous_demand')) }}"
  - sensor:
    - name: "Summation fixed"
      unique_id: "aByI8S9eMlU"
      device_class: "energy"
      state_class: "total_increasing"
      unit_of_measurement: "kWh"
      state: "{{ states('sensor.frient_a_s_emizb_141_summation_delivered')|float / 10 }}"
      availability: "{{ is_number(states('sensor.frient_a_s_emizb_141_summation_delivered')) }}"

Hope I’m not necroposting here but if anyone’s interested in setting the appropriate pulse rate parameter you can do so using the services provided by zha_toolkit:

For example, to write the Pulse Configuration option:

service: zha_toolkit.attr_write
data:
  ieee: ZIGBEE_IEEE_ADDRESS_HERE
  manf: 4117
  endpoint: 2
  cluster: 1794
  attribute: 768
  attr_val: "4000"

Unfortunately this didn’t work, it messed up my data :frowning: I am getting only 1.00, 2.00,etc on Instantaneous demand.
Does anyone have setup 10 000 pulses running on ZHA?

Yes, I was able to set the pluse correctly as described with zha_toolkit. But at first my instantaneous wattage sensor showed only 0 and my total_increasing where skyrocketing by 2000+ kwh. I then went back to the ZHA integration and read the attributes once more from there, no luck. Finally a wrote the divisor again with zha_toolkit and restarted home assistant and took the batteries out of the frient and after that it shows now me correct values:

But if I read the divisor attribute again over zha integration it still shows “1000”. On the other hand on the zha_toolkit it its displayed correctly:

But for me its reboot safe and stable so far.

Hi Tim,
maybe you have a few more helpful ideas for me?
I have done everything as described above, unfortunately without success.
Now it says 0 all the time

Hello, so your ZHA Integration shows still 1000, but it gives you the correct value anyways, after you changed it to 10000 with zha_toolkit?

I’m planning to buy this device, but I need a working solution for the described issue.

Thank you!

Edit:
Bidirectional electricity meters are not supported, so the device is probably not for me.
