The power factor of Phase A is not available somehow, Phase B and Phase C seem to be ok.
Could it be because of negative values?
I'm on the latest version 2.1.0.
Thanks!

Really nice card - used it straight away.

Although please make an option (true/false?) for power factor being either 0-100% or 0-1, as i.e. my electricity meter calculates it with total of 1 max (which seems ok verifying that with Wiki too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_factor )

Hello,

Great card!

I would like to have an option to change the view of the card so that the label is on top of the line, so that it looks more consistent if you use different length of label_leading or label_trailing (see screenshot)

Hello,

Great card!

I would like to have an option to automatically order the list of the entities so that the entities which are consuming the most will be always on top.

Hey mate, I'm the dude from Reddit with the changing dot direction issue ;-)
To add more information about the issue: I never installed your add-on outside of HACS.
Here is my config:

type: custom:energy-overview-card
a_current: sensor.shelly3em01_channel_a_current
b_current: sensor.shelly3em01_channel_b_current
c_current: sensor.shelly3em01_channel_c_current
a_voltage: sensor.shelly3em01_channel_a_voltage
b_voltage: sensor.shelly3em01_channel_b_voltage
c_voltage: sensor.shelly3em01_channel_c_voltage
a_power: sensor.shelly3em01_channel_a_power
b_power: sensor.shelly3em01_channel_b_power
c_power: sensor.shelly3em01_channel_c_power
a_power_factor: sensor.shelly3em01_channel_a_power_factor
b_power_factor: sensor.shelly3em01_channel_b_power_factor
c_power_factor: sensor.shelly3em01_channel_c_power_factor

Thanks!

Presently the card supports three energy inputs, but I was wondering if it's possible to allow a variable number of them, so you could have one or ten.

I'd anticipate that the changes would be to make the EnergyOverviewConfig type have an array of entity fields:

export interface EnergyOverviewConfig {
  type: string;

  entities: {
    current: string;
    power_factor: string;
    voltage: string;
    power: string;
  }[];
}

And then card render method would iterate over the config.entities array to read each entity set to build up the existing data array (there'd probably have to be something else done to make the colour of each row support more).

Can someone help me with examples of the card?
Is this a manual card ? because i am not seeing it in card even though integration is there.

If I wanted to add multiple power meter smart plugs using this card it would be handy to have a lable option per one so we can differentiate.

I did try adding lable/name in case it was already there

I have set sorting to order_by:current but this takes no effect:

When utilizing sensor entities that provide a lot of numbers in their floating point data, the data starts overlapping and is no longer visible:

A workaround is to generate a template sensor that provides the rounding, but given that most power entity viewers already provide a way of rounding data, it's probably more convenient to users to support this out of the box, e.g. to round to 1 or 2 digits (or make it configurable per measurement).

Dutch power meters don't have a 'negative' power variable. Instead they have power_consumed and power_produced variables.
The second you don't draw power, the P1 port of the meter will increase the power_produced counter instead.

So with solar panels, your widget will show for example 14A in use @ 0 watt (as there's 14 amps of power pushed back into the grid)

It'd be great that you could put two variables in your widget:
power_consumed: sensor.1
power_produced: sensor.2

If there's a >0 value in either, it'll show either the power pulled out of the net or pushed back into the grid.
If value ==0 on both, the phase is not used currently.

See attached:

very nice overview. I like it. The voltage and Current are close to each other. Maybe center all 3 over the entire length but also when e.g. power factor is not used.

Is there a way to control the decimals shown in the card? The precision provided by Shelly EM3 for instance seems a little excessive..and cannot be modified in the device afaik. Would not want to create template sensors for this.

Or alternatively, could the card follow the new Display precision setting in UI (new feature in 2023.3 I think). It already seems to be obeying the Unit of measurement set in the UI (f.ex. the kW figures were originally presented as W and I changed them in the UI dialog).

(and yes, my current clamps are still installed the wrong way around:)

Very nice card! :-)

Please add individual animation settings to every entity instead of global setting.
That would be good if used entities does not have same power maximum.

Please add to all HTML elements an unique CSS class for customizing (via card_mod).

Please wrap entity value and entity unit into idividual CSS classed for customizing (indentation, color, etc.)

Thank you! :-)

Hello,

Great card!

I would like to have an option to hide entities when the template given evaluates to true. My use case is that I would like to hide entities which have 0W or less than a few W of current consumption.

Hi,
I have a feature request:

I see that negative values will show the animation from right to left (as expected). My DSMR has two sensors per line: Power Consumption and Power Production. Both are positive values. But When I have Production, I do not have Consumption and vice versa

Is there a way to display the results of the calculation: Consumption-Production? That is: with Consumption this is a positive value, and with Production this is a negative value. This way the animation shows exactly the flow of energy as it occurs.

I tried a template, but this isn't recognized (or I do something wrong).

This is a simple test config that works:

type: custom:energy-overview-card
entities:
  - power: input_number.schuiver
    label_leading: P
    label_trailing: L1
    icon_leading: mdi:transmission-tower
    icon_trailing: mdi:home-lightning-bolt
    color: '#488fc2'

But if I change the power line to use a template, like this:

- power: "{{ states('input_number.schuiver') }}"

It doesn't show anything. This line only uses a template to retrieve the value, no calculations are done (yet)

I am aware I can solve this with a template sensor, but I believe a solution in this card is the cleaner solution.

In most HA cards it is possible to add an optional title to the card, like shown here for entities:

It would be nice to have this field in energy overview card, too. Currently, the layout looks somewhat misaligned without a title ;)

For order_by option I would like to have an additional option to define the all time first row.
In my example I have solar power and several consumers. I would like to have the solar on top and the consumer sorted by consumption below.
Thank you!

With this config, animation only plays over 1000w and not over a 100.

Also a feature request; would be nice to add a 4 bar or some sort of summary of the totalt power etc.

It would be great to have the color and animation dynamic.

I really would like to be able to color by the usage and same for animation. It would be great to have to be able to speed up of slow down the animation by usage.

Thank you!

I’ve noticed some jumps in the animation associated with the values being updated (every 30sec in my case) and it may be proportional to the number of digits: When the current value drops from 3 digits to just 2, the jump appears larger than otherwise. The values themselves on that line move slightly sideways too and there is a miniscule jump in L3 even if the # of digits there remains the same.

Please see screen capture below. The values change from ~12A to ~9A here:

Just installed version 2.2.0 through HACS on HA 2023.3.1 and for some reason the card does not appear in the "Add Card" menu in Lovelace. Tried even redownload in HACS and HA reboot but no, only other custom cards shown in the menu.

I can see the files are at /config/www/community/ha-energy-overview-card and it is listed in Dashboards > Resources (http://homeassistant/config/lovelace/resources) but even when adding some config code manually to a card it shows just an empty card. So somehow Lovelace is not loading this resource? No errors in logs (that I could find/associate to this)

Hello!
Thanks for a good job, very useful card.
Could you add the possibility to use power in kW due most meter provide it in kW, not in W only.
Otherwise card not animated.
Thanks in advance!

When I'm using 100 watts from the grid my Goodwe sensor output -100w so the flow on this card is the wrong way round. Could you add an option to invert the sensor?

Hello,

Great card!

I would like to have an option to specify an action on click on the entity, ideally this would show the more-information dialog of the entity so that I can see the history of consumption for that entity.

Could you add one more parameter to the line - current frequency.
