Hi.
I’m controlling my water heater throug a advanced flow
How it works is if the price changes (as it does every hour) it checks if it is one of the lowest 8 of the day.
If it is it turns on the heater.
If not it turns off the heater.
To make it a bit more complicated i also have a solar panel. So i want it to turn on if i produce more power than i use.
So the top part is for that.
The other thing is that in Norway we have a consumtion fee of sort so if you use more than a given amount over the cours of 1hour (for me it`s 5kw) you get a higher network fee.
So to mitigate this i have a part that turns off the water heater if power consumption is over 5kw.
But since this flow is only activated each hour if i get a small peek above 5kw it turns it off for the rest of the hour.
So that comes back to my main question, is there a way to have a “hold” card or something that requier a continous innput before it triggers the next card.
I want the power usage to be continous over a span of time before it triggers the water heater to turn off.
Anyone know of a solution to my problem?
