  • This is my Energy Monitoring in Home Asistant with the Tuya Zigbee Bidirectional CT Clamp 2023 video. Taking you through my experience with the Tuya Zigbee Bidirectional CT Clamp Energy monitoring meter, explaining where to purchase it, the cost, integrating it in Home Assistant, setting up an energy monitor, comparing the readings with my smart meter, and my conclusions.

    Great content I have subscribed I have a similar setup and the excess energy I use to heat the water up.This CT clamp seems like a good product I will have to get one.

    Very well done video Kev, Because of this video I have ordered the CT Clamp and will hopefully be doing the same as you. I have just got a 4.4KW 16 panelssustem which will be going on the roof then when I have done that I will get another system as this one. can you share the code please Kev. Regards Andy

    Awesome video. I still do not get it how to power the device. In the video ypu just plug it to the grid but which one? We have L1. L2 and L3 grid right?

    Hi thanks for your video. Will the wifi model work with home assistant? Also have you tested the app. If you could do a review on that it would be great for those with a setup without home assistant. Thanks again.

    Great Video, very well explained. How have you found its accuracy? I have some DIY CT sensors using ESPHome but even with lots of calibration I still thing it drifts out in the higher ranges, plus the producing watts also never seem correct. This device might be good for me.

      Edit: just got to the end of the video and you go into the accuracy. :)

    Nice. I haven't used HA for a few years - - -wow how it is come along. Must dust off my raspberry pi server. Do you use Unifi protect in HA?

    Hello, Can I measure the energy that my solar panel are producing by placing the clamp in the positive cable that comes from the panel to the inverter?
    Does this appliance work with DC?

    Hi will the ct clamp report both solar and grid power or is an input from the solar system required. Thanks

    I've bought the same meter but I'm getting an odd error when I'm trying to add the custom sensors for the power direction. It looks like I can't reload to detect the custom sensors because it needs a platform??? Invalid config for [sensor]: required key not provided @ data['platform']. Got None. (See /config/configuration.yaml, line 12). Invalid config for [sensor]: required key not provided @ data['platform']. Got None. (See /config/configuration.yaml, line 12).

    The emporia vie kit works well and is relatively inexpensive.

    I don't see why they don't power it with a dc pack. We cant get to our feed lines here in australia.

      Because in order to accurately calculate AC wattage, you need to know the AC voltage, which fluctuates.

      My bi-directional meter just arrived i(in Australia) today from Ali Express. I’ve only just realised it requires AC power! 😢

      @@wheelo Yeah I have to wait until January for an electrician to come to fit mine. BUT it's a good thing that it requires AC power, because in order to accurately be able to calculate power usage, you need to know the actual voltage, rather than hardcoding an average voltage, which will only give accurate readings part of the time.
