Hi
I am using NUT tools as add-on with my Home Assistant installation to monitor
both my UPS systems (APC SMT3000RMI2U and APC SRT5KRMXLI).
The APC units offer a information called “total consumed energy” which which is
available under OID .1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.4.3.6.0 (unit is kwhv, value * 100).
I would like to leverage this information to perform some basic metering,
checking how much energy the devices behind the UPS are using.
My initial question is on Git:
https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/issues/1428
As suggested by jimklimov I checked docs/nut-names.txt but found nothing for
the above OID or for energy in general.
Hence I would like to propose to add the following information to NUT for
extraction:
==> | output.energy.totalused | Nominal value of totally used energy (kwh) (for
APC e.g. 49050 {=490.50kwh})
Question would be if other devices also have such information or if there is
general concept name for this.
Maybe it makes sense to have a own category energy if there is more information
provided. I can only check my APC systems, but maybe others can check theirs or
already know that there is a general concept or more information.
I would hope that once NUT provides this valuable information, also the HA
integration will fetch it and provide a sensor which then can be used for all
kinds of automations, graphs and statistics. Not that an UPS is a power
metering devcie, but I would love to leverage this information.
Best Regards
