Is an invalid entity ID for dictionary value 'source', got

Maybe someone came across this. I can’t add a second energy sensor, it gives an error

Invalid config for ‘integration’ from integration ‘sensor’ at configuration.yaml, line 65: Entity ID my_sensor_ac_in_watt_2 is an invalid entity ID for dictionary value ‘source’, got ‘my_sensor_ac_in_watt_2’

The error tells you the problem:

Should be:

source: sensor.my_sensor_ac_in_watt_2

thanks I didn’t notice that

Now when adding this sensor to energy it gives an error:

Unexpected device class
The following entities do not have the expected device class:

  • sensor.power_energy_spent
4

So give it device_class: energy.

You should probably be getting an error for that, too. Watts are a measure of power, not energy. Use device_class: power here.

got an error

Configuration warnings

Invalid config for ‘integration’ from integration ‘sensor’ at configuration.yaml, line 58: ‘device_class’ is an invalid option for ‘sensor.integration’, check: device_class

This device class should be power not energy.

You can remove the device class from this one, it will happen automatically:

    - platform: integration
      source: sensor.my_sensor_ac_in_watt_2
      name: power_energy_spent
      unique_id: 56465465465465654564555
      device_class: energy
      unit_prefix: k
      round: 2

should I delete it? device_class:energy

8

No you should replace it with device_class: power, as I said above.

it worked, thank you very much

I’m new to Home Assistant

Now I will have accurate data from the solar inverter
