Inverter Power Flow Card

slipx06 · January 11, 2024, 12:21pm

Yes I will add that

ccj2740 · January 17, 2024, 9:38pm

I just love your power flow card. It´s the best I ever had thank you…

One question about the moving dot on battery…

I wonder why it is moving even when Battery power is not being used is it possible to stop this dot and only run when I use battery or charge ?

slipx06 · January 18, 2024, 8:55am

Hi. The dot will only move if there is battery power. (battery_power_190 this sensor). In your screenshot your battery is producing 204W of power but no current so it looks like there is something strange going on with your battery sensors.

ccj2740 · January 18, 2024, 9:39pm

@slipx06:
Thank you so MUCH you was right I had a wrong sensor added to battery_power_190 , so I changed it and now it works

I am using Solis-sensor from hultenvp

He did some very nice work to integrate with SolisCloud without Modbus :).

I only have one issue with his sensor : sensor.solis_total_consumption_power
Problem is that it is not including the sensor.solis_backup_load_power which mean I get a wrong output in my total consumption power.

Is it possible that I can use multiple sensor to give me the correct output for : your essential_power:
I need to tell it to take my sensor.solis_total_consumption_power and plus it with my sensor.solis_backup_load_power , so I get the correct consumption , would that be possible ?

I tried this : " essential_power: sensor.solis_total_consumption_power + sensor.solis_backup_load_power" , but of course that will not work

slipx06 · January 19, 2024, 9:04am

Hi. You can create a template sensor for this:

- sensor:
    - name: total_consumption
      unique_id: total_consumption
      unit_of_measurement: "W"
      state: "{{states('sensor.solis_total_consumption_power') | int + states('sensor.solis_backup_load_power') | int }}"

ccj2740 · January 19, 2024, 10:05pm

@slipx06 awesome and I would really like to get that created. I tried to add the lines to my sensor.yaml for HA, but tells me it fails if I restart HA with that code ?

Added this to the top in sensor.yaml

- sensor:
    - name: total_consumption
      unique_id: total_consumption
      unit_of_measurement: "W"
      state: "{{states('sensor.solis_total_consumption_power') | int + states('sensor.solis_backup_load_power') | int }}"

and get this…

EDIT…
So I found out to use: Template - Home Assistant
to help make it and now I got it…

THANKS

Hello slipx06, when I compile it gives me an error, see below, can you please advise?
Thanks!

Have you run yarn install or npm install. There were some new dependencies for the card editor?

v4.11.0

Exciting New Features

feat: adds dynamic_line_width: as an optional attribute. Set to true to dynamically adjust the width of the lines and animated dot based on the ratio of current power to max_power (defined in the battery, solar, grid etc sections). Requires that max_power is explicitly defined. See Line thickness to represent power flow? · slipx06/sunsynk-power-flow-card · Discussion #222 · GitHub

slipx06 · February 7, 2024, 8:49pm

v4.12.0

Exciting New Features

feat: This release implements more linear scaling for dynamic_line_width. It also introduces a new attribute max_line_width for customisation of this visual affect. If you like thick lines and cannot lie, bump this number up. If you prefer a more subtle affect drop this below the default value of 4. Don’t forget to set your max_power values. Some examples below:

max_line_width = 10

Max_line_width = 3

hi, i noticed an error in the total power use by the house (se the screenshot).

if you see the power use by the house it lacks 300 watt, that difference is displayed correctly in the other card. Both cards is using the same sensor.
Any ideas?

slipx06 · February 16, 2024, 5:12pm

That’s really strange. Are you using three phase? How have you configured the card?

slipx06 · February 16, 2024, 5:13pm

v4.15.0

Exciting New Features

feat: This release introduces dynamic_colour and linear_gradient options for the battery. These are two optional visual enhancements.
- dynamic_colour changes the colour of the battery icon based on the % contribution of the power source (grid, solar). priority_load_243 will determine whether the battery or the load is prioritized when generating solar power. By default the battery is prioritized.
- If linear_gradient: true the blocks inside the battery icon that represent SOC will be coloured using a linear gradient that ranges from red to green
You can use these settings independently or in combination to achieve various affects. Some examples below
locale: add Brazilian Portuguese translation. closes #250 Thanks @R0DRIG0MEL0
chore: update copyright year. closes #251

You should use this sensor essential_power: for your house load i.e. the sum of the phases

slipx06 · February 16, 2024, 7:59pm

According to your config you are using the same sensor sensor.power_total_istant for grid and for your essential load. That is not correct. I recommend you head over to the discussion on github as there are a couple people who have integrated their GoodWe inverters and can help you with the correct sensors based on your integration. There is also some example configurations that may or may not help.

For three phase you need to create your own template sensor that sums the power from each phase on the load (output) side and use that sensor as your essential_power: sensor or set the card to three_phase: true and provide sensors for load_power_L1:, load_power_L2: and load_power_L3 and remove the essential_power: sensor. The card will use internal logic and sum L1+L2+L3 and display the resulting load power

jbhobson · February 17, 2024, 7:03am

If your saying you have a 3 phase inverter and trying to get the 3 phases showing also, it would be a good idea to also use three_phase: true

Not:
