A very well presented and informative video. - I greatly appreciate your time in putting this together. Thank you

Shelly 2EM can measure with two clamps on the same phase. (same hot wire L)
In the US, Shelly 2EM is also suitable for split phase 180° when a clamp is reversed.
But Shelly 2EM cannot measure three-phase current with 120°, then it can only measure one phase.
Shelly 2EM distinguishes between power consumption and feeding power into the gird.

Great video! I have setup my Shelly EM but when I try to add it to the energy dashboard the entity does now show? It shows all the different entities including total energy produced but not the energy it's producing at that time. Any ideas what I could be? If I want to add a simple chart for example I can use the current energy production entity without any issues, just not in the home assistant energy dashboard

Thanks!

Hi, is it possible to connect it to Home Assistant without configuring it on the Shelly App? Thank you :)

Great video. Can you power this device from socket in the wall?

Hi, can I get consumption per user when I add different users? I am looking for a solution to split the electricity usage bill in a common public area to its users. Can Shelly em do that? If you help me I will be so happy.

[tonybeatle]

why is the intro almost a full minute. get rid of that and just start the video

[rrschmid]

great video!

Out of interest, do I need to use the app on the phone or can I connect shelly device straight to homeassistant once I get it joined to home network?

hello,
You talk a lot about knx in your videos and I would have liked you to indicate how to proceed to integrate KNX meters (electricity, gas and water) in the Energy dashboard !

[ElTorro]

[NielsClips]

what is a "sell E.M."? Is this life style advice. I don't understand all this new-fangled tech. Is your job a waiter? I love Turkey.
