i use the Devolo home Control Smart Metering Plug MT02792
this can show actual power consumption in WATT.
The power consumption change very very often. So Home Assistant updates the sensor every second.
How can i say updates “sensor.devolo_home_control_smart_metering_plug_mt02792_power” only every 60s?
More problematic:
Home Assistant updates ALL ENTITYS (sensors) of the Devolo Plug every second: The plug has 15 sensors in HA:
f.e.
sensor.devolo_home_control_smart_metering_plug_mt02792_alarm_level
sensor.devolo_home_control_smart_metering_plug_mt02792_current
sensor.devolo_home_control_smart_metering_plug_mt02792_unknown
sensor.devolo_home_control_smart_metering_plug_mt02792_power
sensor.devolo_home_control_smart_metering_plug_mt02792_voltage
and so on.
All the 15 sensors are updates every second from HA.
May the problem is, that all of the entities have power_consumption value in there attributes. So HA may think this sensor (entity) is updated too:
f.e. Attributes of “sensor.devolo_home_control_smart_metering_plug_mt02792_voltage”
power_consumption: 0.1
node_id: 4
value_index: 16
friendly_name: Devolo home Control Smart Metering Plug MT02792 Voltage
unit_of_measurement: V
value_instance: 1
value_id: 72057594110050562
f.e. Attributes of “sensor.devolo_home_control_smart_metering_plug_mt02792_unknown”
power_consumption: 0.1
node_id: 4
value_index: 28
friendly_name: Devolo home Control Smart Metering Plug MT02792 Unknown
unit_of_measurement:
value_instance: 1
value_id: 72057594110050754
How can i prevent this?
Because update 15 Entities every Second my home-assistant_v2.db and load rises.
Thanks a lot.
