3 months ago HA always uses the current meter value that is provided by your AI-on-the-edge-device via MQTT-messages:
The calculations for consumption/rate are done HA-internally. So I guess that your device sporadically provides a wrong reading (e.g. 0) that translates to a very high consumption when the next correct reading is received.
To verify that, you can check the data stored in the AI-on-the-edge device (Data -> Data Table). Please do also check that in your configuration (section Post-Processing) you have disabled negative rates.

The Problem
Since the last version (I went from 15..) to Release: v15.7.0 (Commit: 0d0b018+) due to a dead SD card.
I did a clean install with reflashing but periodically the full value is sent to home assistant (via mqtt) instead of just the change. I have another device that doesn't seem to have the problem. However, both devices have the same versions, the same SD card (new) and the same configuration except the name and IP.
Exemple in image
We can see that the value detected is received on home assistant is identical (differences of 1) the next day I have no problem with this same device.
I don't have any logs from today (it says failed to load) but those from previous days are readable. I put the most recent.
Thank you very much for this great project and the time you put into it. It's great for me, who is an old meter, to be able to follow my consumption.
Version

Expected Behavior
The expected behavior is to receive only the change value (the difference) and not an integer value.
Screenshots
I'll put it back here if it's not visible in my first message. (The mainpowermeter7 is because 4,5,6 the same error appened since the update) and on home assistant it is impossible to delete a value. Or at least impossible for me, because I don't know how to do database manipulation).
