Hello!

I have a HomeWizard 3-phase meter that measures total power usage of my apartment. In homey it show as energy consumer. Is there some way of configuring such sensor as grid/total consumption?

Thanks in advance,

Maybe the p1mode driver will work from the HomeWizard app?

Adding it as kWh-meter(P1mode) indeed should do

Else / And:  
In theory there should be an advanced setting like “include in total energy” and such

Indication of possibilities (not by default: it’s device / app dependent!):

P1 mode indeed does work as expected, thanks! 🙂
