Sonoff S60 generally works but it loses overall energy consumption

[guciopl]

On/Off control works ok, Daily and Month energy meters are correct. Volts, Amps, Watts I did not exactly check but looks that this is correct as well.

Only thing malfunctioning is overall energy used. It keeps resetting, no idea why. I have 3 of them and on all 3 overall consumption regularly disappears (1st picture in batch of 3). Therefore when I use sensor.sonoff_1002XXXXX_energy in Energy dashboard it shows total bullshit (2nd picture in batch of 3). For example S60TPF is desk LED lamp using 9W, and in Energy dashboard daily energy consumption shows 0,88kWh, while the true one is 0,04. All other readings are ok (3rd picture in batch of 3) and they match ewelink readings (last picture). Let me know if I can assist somehow by sending some more logs or sharing device to Your account.

Energy should have history for last 30 days. Check attributes of your sensor https://github.com/AlexxIT/SonoffLAN?tab=readme-ov-file#sonoff-pow

I don't think this is matter of history settings. I don't set them at all and I have 20+ sonoff devices (mostly POW) and they all work well. Definitely something is wrong on HA side with calculating actual power to energy usage. I bought another S60 and added it to HA to double check it.

Daily/monthly usage from app is correct (I verified that with independent power meter):

Those 2 attrubites are passed to HA correctly and visible there:

However actual power usage readings are somehow incorrect, and when I link it with power meter entity by this:

- platform: integration
  name: energy_spent_S60chlod
  source: sensor.sonoff_100223XXXX_power
  unit_prefix: k
  round: 2

This is what I see in Energy dashboard after adding sensor.energy_spent_S60chlod there:

All needed entities like

• sensor.sonoff_100223XXXX_power
• sensor.energy_spent_S60chlod are of course added to recorder in configuration.yaml

The component just requests data from the cloud. I've never seen this data. I don't have any of these devices.

Hi! I am also having problems in Energy dashboard when adding S60 devices. Data in Individual devices usage is not shown correctly as seen on next two screenshots. I shows negative Energy when it should be positive. I think there is problem with data timestamp. Any ideas?

I'm having the same issue, maybe it's because Energy dashboard treats them as incremental not daily?

[jabbas]

In my case, in the db data looks ok:

But when put in the energy tab:

I can confirm the issue, I have 2xS60TPF and they both do the same.

Another problem I found is that I cannot add the power consumption to the "Energy Tab", despite both devices working correctly.

I guess there's some configuration error on the addon side, both plugs are working perfectly.

Problem with wrong metering I solved with adding method: left to the configuration:

- platform: integration
  name: energy_spent_jacuzzi
  source: sensor.sonoff_XYZ_power
  unit_prefix: k
  round: 2
  method: left

as per: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/integration/#integration-method

Devices I use S60TPF with are not having constant usage, so this metering method is better suited. Now readings in HA match readings in Ewelink. They are being also correctly transformed into daily usage in Energy tab once I registered energy_spent_jacuzzi there.

If someone doesn't need current usage and simply want to have daily readings from device transfered to Energy tab, then the easiest thing to achieve that is to modify S60TPF's _energy_month entity in customize.yaml. You need to set it as total_increasing:

sensor.sonoff_ABC_energy_month:
  device_class: energy
  unit_of_measurement: kWh
  friendly_name: "Device"
  state_class: total_increasing

Where exactly did you find customize.yaml? I'm having the same problems and I really only need the energy consumption te be correct for my use case, so i'd like to implement the fix you found.

Thanks in advance!

I have it in root directory, next to config.yaml. It is included in that config like this:

homeassistant:
  customize: !include customize.yaml

I think You can also put that code directly to config.yaml but not sure.
