Real-Time Power Dashboard

Made a dashboard so (assuming my server and IoTaWatt are up) I can monitor at a glance what the house is drawing in near-real time. Intended mainly for generator use, so I can tell if there is surplus capacity or if we’re at the limit more easily.

I don’t have any clever way to have HA tell which power source it’s on, but I can scroll and look for that part.

For the house utility power, I just used like 75% and 90% of the main breaker rating for color-coding (because it looked meh with no colors)

For the generators, Yellow=about 85% load; Red = over max rated running power; Pegged = over max rated starting power

Doing a test earlier today…

“MISC Power” is all the stuff in the house that isn’t a specific dedicated circuit so I can tell how much of it is small circuits vs large circuits.
