Not a light but a heating switch #2826

Hi, Since a few versions ago the HomeMatic (eQ-3) HM-LC-Sw1-DR has been added to PowerCalc. I do have however one HM-LC-Sw1-DR and two HM-LC-Sw4-DR's. The difference is the number of switches (1 vs 4). Is it possible to add the 4 switch version as well? Kind regards, |

I don't have that device, so have no possibility to actually measure it. Do you have any possibility to measure? I assume it's difficult because it's already installed in your meter cupboard, right? |

As you assumed correctly the device is already installed, so measuring it is not possible. I was hoping it would be a matter of extending the one switch. |

You could guesstimate the self usage per switch, or see if you can find some information from manufacturer. |

Next you could create a virtual power sensor using this strategy https://docs.powercalc.nl/strategies/multi-switch/.
Which seems to be a good fit for your use case.
