Utility meter behaving weird? counting much more then source entity

Configuration
1

I have created a utility meter, both with delta enabled as disabled in seperate entitys.
The source entity is a car charging entity, that counts from 0 to x amount of kwh when the car is charging.
I want to track how much the car is charging (the original source sensor can go to 0 and start counting again multiple times per day).
The utility sensor however, is counting WAY more then the source sensor is reporting. my current charging session entity sits at 2,4kwh. and the utility sensor sits at 146kwh. i created the sensor around the same time as the car started charging.

What can be wrong here?

Share the utility meter config. We’re not very good mind readers.

I can’t read German. If you have a running total source sensor then turn off the “Delta Values” utility meter option (if it is on).
