Sonoff BASIC / TH10 and SCT-013-000 Non-invasive AC Current Sensor #2407

Closed cncmodeller closed 6 years ago

cncmodeller commented 6 years ago

Hi Folks, Please can anyone advise what would be an appropriate sensor configuration and pin assignment to accept a 0-VCC input from this device connected as identified below? I can calibrate the MQTT output within Openhab, I just need to capture and send the voltage data.

ESP and Current Transformer

converted to DC with a bridge rectifier and smoothing capacitor...

Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Many Thanks Barry M

If your goal is to measure house power utilization, Tasmota is not the right solution. OEM has a few choices that would be much better for that purpose. I have an IotaWatt, which is a pretty complete system that embodies a lot of engineering effort. Tasmota is not going to give you anything close to that. If you want to see power on a device to two, I would use the Sonoff S31 (or POW). They work with Tasmota and are pretty cheap and reasonably accurate.
