Suggestions for energy monitor

[venyv]

Does anyone have a good suggestion for a home electricity/energy system for the US? I was considering this one http://neur.io/

Open Energy Monitor, pulse reading energymeter

Thanks Abbadon I will check that out.

I own a Neurio. Somebody integrated it into Domoticz?

[herscotty]

Someone already have a solution?

[herscotty]

OK, it was very easy!

Depend the program "jq" -> https://stedolan.github.io/jq/
Create a virtual Sensor for Power usage and Voltage -> change the IDX in the Script
Also change the IP for your neurio and Domoticz!

The Script get the Powerusage and Voltage average of neurio and write them into a virtual dummy device in Domoticz.

If you have a question or need help, send me a pm!

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

neurio=`curl -s --connect-timeout 2 --max-time 5  -X GET  -H "Content-Type:application/json" 'http://192.168.178.26/current-sample' `
if [ -z "$neurio" ]
then
   exit 1
else

        power=$(echo $neurio | jq '.channels[] | .p_W' | tail -n1)
        voltage=$(echo $neurio | jq '.channels[] | .v_V' | tail -n1)
fi

#echo "power " $power	# Just for debugging
#echo "voltage " $voltage

#Change the IDX to your IDX-Number:
curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=IDX&nvalue=0&svalue=${power}" >>/dev/null
curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=IDX&nvalue=0&svalue=${voltage}" >>/dev/null

That looks great!
What triggers this script?
Which sensor type should I use for power?

[herscotty]

I use a dummy Sensor "electric" and triggers the script with crontab every minute
