Anker Solix 2 Pro Smart Meter values

[Siddi2872]

Hello Tom,

Thx for your great work with this Integration. I have a question about the Smart Meter values.
The smart meter measures the total power consumed in the house. This value can be seen in the Anker app. but the API only sends the two values "Grid Export" and "Grid Import"? Is there a way to get or calculate the value of the total power?

Thx in advance

Hi @Siddi2872 , the house demand is not a smart meter value, so you won't find it under the smart meter device.
It is calculated by the cloud and reported under the solarbank total values.
The integration does list it in the system values, I believe it is house consumption or house demand.

Hi Tom,
I know what you mean. There are 3 entitys like that, but they are all showing the same value. The value for the Output from the Solarbank with 800 watts max. Not the value of the full house consumption.

I checked this, actually they are created under the Solarbank device. If they are the same, then this is what the cloud returns usually, You can check the cloud values with the get system info service.
Here is the entity description for them. The json_key is the response field that is used for the sensor, the translation key will be converted to the translated name according your HA language.
home_load_power should be the response field you are looking for.

    AnkerSolixSensorDescription(
        key="ac_to_home_load",
        translation_key="ac_to_home_load",
        json_key="to_home_load",
        native_unit_of_measurement=UnitOfPower.WATT,
        device_class=SensorDeviceClass.POWER,
        state_class=SensorStateClass.MEASUREMENT,
        suggested_display_precision=0,
        exclude_fn=lambda s, _: not ({SolixDeviceType.SOLARBANK.value} - s),
        check_invalid=True,
    ),
    AnkerSolixSensorDescription(
        key="home_load_power",
        translation_key="home_load_power",
        json_key="home_load_power",
        native_unit_of_measurement=UnitOfPower.WATT,
        device_class=SensorDeviceClass.POWER,
        state_class=SensorStateClass.MEASUREMENT,
        suggested_display_precision=0,
        exclude_fn=lambda s, _: not ({SolixDeviceType.SMARTMETER.value} - s),
    ),
    AnkerSolixSensorDescription(
        key="ac_generate_power",
        translation_key="ac_generate_power",
        json_key="generate_power",
        native_unit_of_measurement=UnitOfPower.WATT,
        device_class=SensorDeviceClass.POWER,
        state_class=SensorStateClass.MEASUREMENT,
        suggested_display_precision=0,
        exclude_fn=lambda s, _: not ({SolixDeviceType.INVERTER.value} - s),
    ),

That should be the 'Hausbedarf' sensor of the SB2 device
