Yes, I had obviously seen the entities list already, but it’s a bit strange there is no documentation anymore about what each of these relate to. I understand the “monitored conditions” have gone out of the configuration, but seen all of these sensors do get created it would make sense to document them somewhere.
Again, some of the sensors are straightforward, some others I still wonder what they actually report or relate to.
Home Assistant 1.0 will not support “monitored conditions” so that’s why they removed it from the Solar Edge component. All data will be saved received from the endpoint will be saved. You, as a user, can decide if you want to show it somewhere.
In the release notes there is a remark about breaking change. It was that solar edge was moved from ‘sensor’ to it’s own integration.
I have no issue with the monitored conditions going away, as long as the right sensors are being created.
Again, all I’m looking for is a description of the sensors created by the integration module.
For instance it’s not clear what these are:
sensor.solaredge_meters
sensor.solaredge_sensors
And also not clear what is the difference between these except for the unit (kW and W):
Also, any way of getting the data per-pannel that is sent out by sniffing a mirrored port from the inverter? not sure this data that can be seen in the API, but it can be seen in the solaredge app so it is being transmitted somehow to their servers.
Does anyone here have the same problem as i have by intergrate solar edge to it’s own intergrations section?
I looks like the intergrations is working cause i get updatet data from solaredge and the values are the same as in my app. But in de logging every 10 min (when it do a reqeust) i get the following error in my logging.

Missing connections in power flow data
I already mentioned this in this thread. but it looks like no one has a solution. Are there more people with this problem?
Today I had a tech from the company that installed my inverter at my house to try and get the SolarEdge Monitoring website to display data. He downloaded the firmware again, and then did a factory reset. After that I seem to be getting good data in Hassio and on the SolarEdge website (it did zero out my previous data). It also put a 3.5 kW power limit on my inverter, which I discovered on Home Assistant. They will be back tomorrow to fix that problem (should put out 10 kW). I will keep you posted.
I still think that the average optimizer temperature is displaying centigrade not fahrenheit but not sure how to change it.
Is it possible to get the current battery charge? I can see the data is definitely available in the API, but I’m not sure if the data is available in HA.
Hi Gido,
do you know if its possible to add 2 SE sites to HA? I have 2 SE inverters and each belongs to different site. I’ve not been able to figure how to add it to my HA.
Hi @ozarn, interesting, never really thought of that. I had a look but keep getting a duplicate key 'api_key'. Maybe with different packages in the HA configuration?
That’s fine , I was referring to the packages configuration. Just tried it with my own setup (by adding a duplicate) but doesn’t seem to be working. I did find a similar topic with multiple Tradfri gateways. They have similar issues though - sorry I can’t help you any further.
I had the SolerEdge working file till few versions back (can’t remember which). I have updated the configuration.yaml to the new API and I get no error s in the LOG and no sensors at all.
I might call SolarEdge as one of the posts suggested this might help as I see no firmware update capability nor re-boot in the web monitoring of my system.
Does anyine know what happened to the Storage_ChargeLevel value. This gave the Current Charge State of the Battery/s and seems to have been left out of the HASSIO interface implementation. It is availabale by Solaredge API but either I find this or I need to change all the code back to the API.
Is there someone who can help me? I’ve got a solaredge, but i can’t get it to work in HA. I’ve tested the api and i’m getting this result:
{“overview”:{“lastUpdateTime”:“2020-03-27 12:06:27”,“lifeTimeData”:{“energy”:1.1697751E7,“revenue”:70.5133},“lastYearData”:{“energy”:341303.44},“lastMonthData”:{“energy”:222582.78},“lastDayData”:{“energy”:7376.6562},“currentPower”:{“power”:2307.0},“measuredBy”:“INVERTER”}}
So that’s working, but when i want to setup the integration in HA, it doesn’t save the settings.
I’m running HASSIO version 107.5
I hope that there’s someone here with some pointers.
Hi @gerthjan, I’ve also installed solaredge panels and there’s a much better way to get that integrated than the original API. It’s using the Solaredge Modbus TCP integration. Take a look here:
You’ll be able to get in real time (without delay) and locally your data from your inverter and (if that’s the case, from your meter). Take a look at some of the data you can display:
what type inverter do you have? i’ve added Modbus it to my HA, but it’s nog working. It’s not reading any information. i’ve added everything to my configuration.yaml.
Did you make any ajustments to you inverter?
Hi again @gerthjan , mine is SE4000H, quite a small one, but as I understand all current Solaredge inverters support modbus. I did have to enable Modbus via the inverter ‘SetApp’ application, using my mobile, as it was disabled by default in my inverter. I had problems to be able to use the app as I didn’t have access to it, so I had to contact my installer to be allowed to use it (username and password).
