Best way of achieving on command on meter readings?

Post by stuiow »

I have a power meter that monitors electricity of the house.
I now have solar generation too.
I want to add the ability for some devices to be turned on when my electricity hits something like -2000 Watts.
Can I achieve this with blocky?
I tried a simple blocky but the off command were being sent far too frequently.
Thanks
Stuart

Hi,

There is a bathroom extract fan script in Lua. That one has a monitor in time steps.

I believe that would a good start to first check the status over a few minutes and then do the switching.
( no blocky sorry )
