Missing Energy and Current Sensors

[web1452]

I have an Aeotec Home Energy Monitor Gen5, and the Energy and Current Sensor are not appearing in the entities. I can see the data being sent from Hubitat to HA and being updated but no entity is appearing with that data.

Wattage and Voltage are working and reporting.

Same here. Was hoping to get kWh working. it works on other integrations using Maker_API (I'm using The Home Remote as my whole home controller) so its something on the HA side. I'm a complete noob here so I'm no help. Just thought I'd chime in and second this request.

If kWh was working then I would be able to use the new Energy feature in HA, correct?

Could you post the device data for your device from Hubitat? Seeing what Hubitat says about the device will hopefully indicate why those sensors aren't showing up.

not sure if this will help but I recall reading somewhere that the device class needs to be energy "device_class: energy" (not power) and the unit of measurment kWh

Hi Jason! I appreciate your response! Please be patient with me as I'm still trying to wrap my head around all this! :) Any guidance is much appreciated!

Here's what I get.. hopefully that what you're looking for? (Parent Device)

Not sure if this helps but this was in the log (those are the 3 devices from the Energy Monitor): Edit: forgot to mention I only get this occasionally.

I have a first generation version of one of these Aeon devices. I too went down the rabbit hole of trying to get this wired up with HA's energy features, and it turns out the attribute that isn't making its way to an entity is energy.

I'm adding my own device info in hopes it turns out to be useful for you. 🙂

Same here. I have almost similar device info as @CamSoper.

Looks like there is no support for energy device yet in this integration.

[jason0x43]

Not yet. It shouldn't take much to add support, but I've been tied up for the last couple months and haven't had a chance to implement it yet.

[cdhawan]

Thank you @jason0x43 for this great project.

It was simple enough for me to try and add this support. Kindly take a look at following PRs. Tested and working for me.

• https://github.com/jason0x43/hubitatmaker/pull/14
• https://github.com/jason0x43/hacs-hubitat/pull/148

[cdhawan]

@jason0x43 can you spare some time to merge above changes and release new packages for hubitatmaker and hacs-hubitat?

[jason0x43]

Yes, I was planning to make some updates to the integration this week. 😄

[cdhawan]

Thank you!
