## Miscellaneous

_Some might wonder why Energy Dashboard shows different(higher) Load Consumption than sensor like for example "Today(Daily) Load Consumption. And it's because the Energy Dashboard does calculcale this value by summing up Exported(Bought) and Produced energy and this also includes consumption of the inverter itself + some AC/DC losses along the way."_

So for those curious enough here is some insight...

#### Inverter power losses calculation [W]:
```
Power losses = Battery Power + PV1 Power + PV2 Power - Inverter Power
```

#### Total losses calculation [kWh]:
```
Total losses = Total Energy Exported(Bought) + Total Production + Total Battery Discharge - Total Energy Imported(Sold) - Total Battery Charge - Total Load Consumption
```

#### Today(Daily) losses calculation [kWh]:
```
Today(Daily) losses = Today(Daily) Energy Exported(Bought) + Today(Daily) Production + Today(Daily) Battery Discharge - Today(Daily) Energy Imported(Sold) - Today(Daily) Battery Charge - Today(Daily) Load Consumption
```

_To get value which is in Energy Dashboard as "Home Consumption" remove subtraction of Load Consumption from above._

## Diagnostics

I was using during the development also this sensor bundle:
