Can someone tell me why my utility meter suddenly shows such a high value. Yesterday it shows me the right value.
What do you see in the history of the sensor the utility meter uses?
I don’t know, but that at least shifts the focus away from the utility meter and onto whatever integrations that meter uses 
Yes understand. Can i fix this peak problem?
Have a look at the integration providing this erroneous value.
I have but i dont know whats the problem its a fibaro wall plug.
You can use a filter to avoid spikes
Or you need to investigate why the sensor provides the spike
Oh thanks i will test it
Do I understand correctly that I just have to add that?
sensor:
- platform: filter
name: "filtered fibaro"
entity_id: sensor.fibaro_system_fgwpe_f_wall_plug_gen5_energy
filters:
- filter: lowpass
now you need to update your utility meter to use this new sensor
I’m confused, filter should avoid this peaks.
The Low-pass filter (
lowpass) is one of signal processing most common filters, as it smooths data by shortcutting peaks and valleys.
Anyway, seems problem is in your fibaro. I need to understand something, why is reporting all time 0kwh?
Also, I’m not german, so i don’t understand the meassurements for the other screenshot
i had the same issue with rainforestautomation eagle200 zigbee gateway for my utility meter … large spikes … i had to extract the meter readings via my own command line script and sanity check the value verses the prior reading … and drop and large excursions … these spikes cause issues since i’m integrating the values to calculate $/hr and a running total of $ per billing cycle
also, my script first tries to read the meter multiple times if it detects an erroneous value …
It report not 0 kwh its just the diagram it show this…i think i solve the problem with the filter outlier now it works like a charm and no spikes
any issues? or does it continuous working?
I’m wondering why low pass didn’t work
