Hi,  
I‘m looking for a WiFi plug with higher power (for a washing maschine) and energy / Power measurement. Any recommendations?

RoyWissenburg,  
Sorry, but maybe you watch out for your tone a bit. Quite rude honestly.

It should be at least 2500 W. Haven’t looked at anything yet, and I’m asking if there is someone who can recommend something.

So you ask an open question without detailed information and without doing some research yourself, expect us to spend time to give an adequate and suitable answer and then call someone who takes that time and asks for that vital information rude? I’m lost…

It’s the tone that makes the music… 🙄

Well, I felt the reply was not the friendliest. Anyhow, maybe it’s just a misinterpretation on my side and as most of us are not English native speakers here, we might not be the best in phrasing things in the perfect tone. 😉

To the topic: This one here (**[https://www.amazon.de/dp/B017X72IES/](https://www.amazon.de/dp/B017X72IES/)**) says it can measure energy, I do own it, however no such data is visible in Homey.

Well, then it should report power according the app store details.

There are two TP-Link plugs: HS100 en HS110, one is without energy (and cheaper), other one with energy (and more expensive).

Thanks for the hint, did not know they do plugs as well. Ordered it, let’s see if it does the job.

I’ve got a few (Shelly plugs) and they work perfectly. Both the regular ones with led ring as well as the 16a plug. Both measure energy.

If you’re looking for zwave stuff: qubino has 16a zwave plus plugs that also measure energy.

I got the Shelly plug yesterday. Works perfectly and reliable. Peak power consumption of my washing maschine is about 2100 W so there is still plenty of room.
