This specific custom_component is going to be deprecated soon ! You can continue to use this installation but it will not been maintained/updated.
I've joined the plugwise team to have the legacy plugwise USB-stick be incorporated into the existing native Plugwise integration at Home Assistant. This is currently in development but not available yet. In the meanwhile you can use the plugwise-beta version of the Plugwise integration instead by adding the repository manually to HACS.
This is a Home Assistant integration (custom component) for legacy Plugwise Circle+, Circle and Stealth devices.
Be aware this integration does NOT support the new Plug which can be identified by having a local button !
Currently this integration supports the devices and functions listed below:
| Plugwise node | Relay control | Power monitoring | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| Circle+ | Yes | Yes | Working |
| Circle | Yes | Yes | Working |
| Stealth | Yes | Yes | Experimental (not tested) |
For each device the following entities are created
| Entity type | Description | Unit | Default state in HA |
|---|---|---|---|
| Switch | Relay on/off | n/a | Enabled |
| Sensor | Ping roundtrip | ms | Disabled |
| Sensor | Power usage (last second) | Watt | Enabled |
| Sensor | Power usage last 8 seconds | Watt | Disabled |
| Sensor | Power consumption current hour | KWh | Enabled |
| Sensor | Power consumption previous hour | KWh | Enabled |
| Sensor | Power consumption today | KWh | Enabled |
| Sensor | Power consumption yesterday | KWh | Enabled |
| Sensor | Power production current hour | KWh | Disabled |
| Sensor | Power production previous hour | KWh | Disabled |
| Sensor | Inbound RSSI | dBm | Disabled |
| Sensor | Outbound RSSI | dBm | Disabled |
Install this integration to Home Assistant using HACS
In the HA UI go to "Configuration" -> "Integrations" click "+" and search for "Plugwise USB-Stick". In the configuration wizard select the "USB Device path" that refers to the USB-Stick or select "Enter Manually" to type it manually. When the connection to the USB-stick is found it will automatically discovery all linked devices.
- This integration does not support adding (linking) or removing devices to/from the Plugwise network (yet). You still need the Plugwise Source software for that.
