Outlet in use for Inverter any way to make it count negative? #627

Hi,

i have my electric meter as outlet in homekit and i've also added my micro inverter as outlet, the strange thing is it seems to calculate all consumptions together. Since i have the micro inverter integrated eve is showming we the total consumption very to high (50-60 kwh each day) this started as i integrated the micro inverter.

Is there a way to tell the plugin to count this outlet as negative?

Best Regards X23

I'm not sure if homekit (+Eve) supports negative consumptions.

I have integrated my electric meter as outlets, too. I solved it for me by using 2 outlets. One outlet only uses positive consumptions. The other one only uses negative consumptions.

That's the way how I can watch in Eve the total consumption and the total fedd/supply separately. If I need the difference, I've to do it manually.

Only problem: consumptions > 12000 are ignored.
