Weird Isse with energy dashboard recognising

Hello

I have run to a “weird” situation and I was wondering if anyone can share any insights
I am currently try to setup me energy dashboard, I have an ecosystem with metering devices from tuya and sonoff. The devices provide power information so I have setup sensors to provide energy information.

For example those two power sensors provided by the official tuya integration for the main tv power and then a secondary plug next to the first and I needed to converted them to energy sensors.

The relevant yaml entries are

  • platform: integration
    source: sensor.maintv_power
    name: MainTV Meter
    unit_prefix: k
    round: 2
  • platform: integration
    source: sensor.smart_socket_power
    name: LivingBalc Meter
    unit_prefix: k
    round: 2

However on the energy dashboard only SOME of them appear

(in this case I have available to integrate the livingbalc Meter – 2nd integration setup However the first - MainTV Meter- is nowhere to be seen in the energy Dashboard ……

The sensor MainTV Meter that seems not to be included in the energy dashboard is alive and gathering values (curently MainTVBed value is 33 and sensor.smart_socket_power is 178)





……

Any ideas as to what can be wrong ?

Your unit of measurement is wrong. It is kwh and should be kWh

Thank you, could be an issue since the specific value is provided by local tuya integrations however this is not it … I have around 20 metering devices in official tuya and all are in the correct format (capital W) with the excact same issue


For example the another plug is in BedAC. There the measurement is right (the metering entity is created in yaml as follows
{

  • platform: integration
    source: sensor.airconbed_power
    name: BedAC Meter
    unit_prefix: k
    round: 2
    }
    and it still doeasnt appear in the energy dashboard which is quite puzzling (same integration, same type of devices, bought around the same time, same yaml configuration, only some are displayed … - I dont go for sonoff atm) …

That one doesn’t have a device class of energy. Maybe you have different issues on different sensors.
