Energy & power metering
- Wire your RS485 energy meters to a gateway and add each as an rs485 device, mapping registers (voltage, current, kWh) to tags.
- Use a line-chart for power trend and a kpi-card for today's kWh.
- For totals across meters, use a computed widget summing each meter's power tag.
- Add a rule on
current > rated_ampsto catch overloads.
For long time ranges, prefer the rs485-query data source so the backend buckets history efficiently.
