Hey guys,
Need help with home connect.
Ive installed it and connected it to home assistant successfully.
But i don’t get a single energy or power sensor.
I’ve seen that on the home connect app the energy manager is not setup.
Is there anything i should-can do to get power consumption sensor into home assistant?
Maybe any guide on how to setup energy manager? Is that gonna help with my problem?
i’m also interested in getting the power consumption…
i do not want to install an additional device - such as a shelly…
hopefully someone can help or has an advice.
I’m confused. Are we talking about this Home Connect?
Where are you imagining that the power draw information is going to come from?
Each appliance could send power information, but that depends on them supporting it.
I also just installed the Home Connect integration as I thought there will be a energy entity. Well bummer.
However in case of the dishwasher I suppose there is a workaround: There are entities for every one of the specific wash program and on the BSH website you can find the energy consumption for each of the programs.
I suppose you could then calculate and create a template that divides the e.g. 1,5kWh / 45 minutes = 2000 Watt at any time during the 45 minutes.
Hi,
have you managed to create those templates? It could be used in genereal, except some energy/program definitions for specific model.
Thanks.
