Shelly Uni-Voltage reading to low

Hi guys,

I’ve just got hold of a Shelly Uni, just for the purpose of the ADC. The readings obtained are about 1v to low.

If there a way to offset this value so It displays correctly?

I am running HA on a raspberry pi 4 and using the native Integration.
core-2021.1.5
supervisor-2021.01.7
Operating System
Home Assistant OS 5.10

Cool that you’ve got a Shelly Uni hooked up. I’m waiting on a delivery for one.
Can you use a Template that just adds 1 to the value and puts that into a new entity?
Here are some examples:

I’ve just had a look at templates and that’s totally beyond me, I was hoping that just a simple edit to the driver would do the trick. :thinking:

Does the Uni have a web interface?

If so, is the voltage correct there?

If not: report it to shelly support.

It does have a web Interface and the voltage reported there Is the same as in HA, there are some options In there but none for the voltage offset. I have another Uni coming this week, If I get the same results then I will report It to Shelly.

When I get mine, if it shows the incorrect voltage, I’ll post the Template code to correct it.

My second Shelly Uni arrived today and I get exactly the same results…Reporting about 1 volt lower than the true value.

Support ticket now opened with Shelly.

I got mine yesterday and it measures voltage exactly the same as my multimeter. I used the HACS Shelly software instead of the built-in Shelly software in Home Assistant. It supposedly can be run in addition to the built-in one:

Note that I had to use the “voltage: { decimals: 1 }” lin in my configuration.yaml to get it to not round off to an integer.

So that begs the question, what is Kevin using to measure the “true” voltage?

Also a comparison of firmware versions between you two may be revealing.

I’ve checked with 2 meters and on the latest firmware.

Are you wiring up four wires to the Uni? - red/black for positive/ground, green for ground and white for positive you want to measure?

Sorry for the late reply, I’ve been transfering my set up to ssd.
All sorted now, I did not connect the sensor gnd wire :man_facepalming:
Thanks for the Input gents.

Ah. So they’re isolated inputs.

Well this has saved me a bit of panic, thank you. I went to check the manual and sure enough, the diagram shows you should do this. Odd enough that I didn’t think I need to read the manual for this.
