I have setup PVOutput via a sensor to upload to my HA which is now setup and working nicelly thanks to help from members of this forum. I’m now trying to add another upload from my second PV array but I cannot get it to work like the first, it appears to overwrite my first sensor, I have tied changing several variables but still no success. this is my latest configuration that is still not working, can anyone see my mistake?

My initial configurations only mentioned “garage” & “shed” in the “name” & “friendly names” but I’ve added then into the formatting more in an attend to separate the 2 sensors (both PVOutput ID’s share the same api code)
You need different names for your template sensors.

Thanks but I’m still a bit of a novice, where do I put that info in my configuration

No matter if you do the ‘sensor 2’ syntax, it results in a ‘sensor.xxxx’ so if you use the same identifier, it sesults (or should raise an error, wondering why not) in the same sensor.

Ooops, sorry, seperate from the same template sensor identifiers, i realized now that the problem is the second pvoutput sensor.

Whatever settings I choose for the second account they always seem to affect the first account, either by a giving an error when selected in the GUI or displaying no error but also no data. I’ve tried adding a number to the "sensor.pvoutput_2" or "power_generation_2" or "sensor_2.pvoutput" or "power_2_generation".

Hello Graham @xion2000 Figure it out? I have a similar question with having multiple enphase envoy solar monitors. Thanks

This works for me.
