Might be that I don’t understand it fully but I would like to display daily power consumption using the utility meter. I would like it to look like the Energy dashboard with one bar per day but with more flexibility using Apex Charts. Here is the sensor:
As I udnerstood it, the utility meter would gather data from one day (the total amount consumed) and store it as one value for that day. Here there are tons of values for each day. What am I missing?
Problem is that it doesn’t help so I’m thinking that I might put the wrong data into the utility meter. When you create the utility meter, what sensor do you use? Do you use a sensor that accumulates the power consumption every day like the first screenshot in my first post? Or do you use the sensor that shows the actual power consumption and updates constantly?
I have a Tibber P1 that monitors the power consumption and an Easee car charger.
I’m actually using an experimental feature that colours the graph according to the state of the sensor. I left that bit out so as not to confuse you. Here’s the full card config:
I did that under the series but it wouldn’t change the color, i actually did read it but figured i missunderstod something.
I’ll have to keep trying, thx
Got it to work now, did the same as before but now it just worked, must have been some Reload of page or something but now Its blue and nice, much better than the mini graph card. Thx
Taking a chance and hoping that anyone of you are using the utility meter to calculate the monthly electricity cost?
Is this an OK way of doing it? sensor.elforbrukning_manad is a sensor accumulating kWh for the current month and is set to 0 end of month. Can I use this and the amount calculaton in the utility meter?
