## ⚠️️Special Pow Attention ⚠️️
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**Do not connect AC power and the serial connection at the same time**
|
|
||||||
The Gnd connection of the Pow is connected to the live AC wire. Connecting serial with your PC will fry your PC and will electrocute you.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**DO NOT CONNECT ANY SENSOR TO THESE DEVICES.** Only use them as designed.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**The GPIOs on the Pow are connected to AC power**, therefore it is not possible to safely add sensors to the Pow / Pow R2.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**The AC connection between Pow and Pow R2 is different**, so be careful when you perform an in-place replacement.
|
|
||||||
- **Pow R2**: Lo-E-E-Li-N-N = LineOut-EarthOut-EarthIn-LineIn-NeutralOut-NeutralIn
|
|
||||||
- **Pow**: Lo-E-E-N-N-Li = LineOut-EarthOut-EarthIn-NeutralOut-NeutralIn-LineIn
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Serial Connection
|
|
||||||
|
|

<img alt="picture of the Sonoff Pow PCB, the needed pin header can be seen on the top end" src="https://www.itead.cc/wiki/images/e/e3/Sonoff-Pow-00.JPG" width="50%" align="right" />
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Please see the [Hardware Preparation](https://github.com/arendst/Sonoff-Tasmota/wiki/Hardware-Preparation) page for general instructions.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
As always, you need to access the serial interface.
|
|
||||||
- **Pow R2**: The **four serial pins** (VDD, E-RX, E-TX, GND) are available at the rear/short end of the PCB. Do not use I04 and I05.
|
|
||||||
- **Pow**: The **four serial pins** (3V3, Rx, Tx, GND) are available at the rear/short end of the PCB as can be seen in the upper part of the image to the right.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To enter **flash mode**, press down on the button while powering the device.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Note - After the module type is changed to "Sonoff Pow" or "Sonoff Pow R2" using the "module" command, the serial port is no longer available for entering configuration commands because the serial port is used to communicate to the power measurement chip. Make sure you have set up your network connection before doing this.

## Calibration
|
|
||||||
Sonoff Pow might need calibration as correct measurements are influenced by hardware and timing differences.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I used the following procedure to calibrate.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Prerequisites
|
|
||||||
- Calibrated multimeter :wink:
|
|
||||||
- Optional calibrated power meter :wink:
|
|
||||||
- 60W light bulb
|
|
||||||
2. Connect the Pow to the optional power meter.
|
|
||||||
3. Connect the 60W light bulb
|
|
||||||
4. Open a webbrowser to Pow showing the main page and another webbrowser showing the Console
|
|
||||||
5. Turn power on and wait a few seconds for the pow to settle on a stable power reading
|
|
||||||
6. Verify the power reading with the power meter or expected 60W and if needed change the power offset in W with command `PowerSet 60.0`.
|
|
||||||
7. Verify the voltage reading with the multimeter and if needed change the voltage offset in V with command `VoltageSet 235.5`.
|
|
||||||
8. Verify the current reading with the calculated value of P (step 6) / U (step 7)) and if needed change the current offset in mA with command `CurrentSet 254.777`.
|
|
||||||
Example:
|
|
||||||
`P/U=I`
|
|
||||||
`Watt/Volt=Ampere (A)`
|
|
||||||
`A*1000=mA`
|
|
||||||
`(60.0/235.5)*1000=254.777`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Result explanation
|
|
||||||
The Sonoff Pow can provide Energy, Power, Voltage and Current information in different ways.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Push result using Telemetry
|
|
||||||
The preffered way is using the periodic telemetry data. Setting ```teleperiod 300``` will send telemetry data every 5 minutes.<br />
|
|
||||||
**Note:** If the setting `PowerDelta` (new since version 5.12.0e) is not 0 (default 80%), telemetry will be send on power change too.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
tele/pow1/SENSOR = {"Time":"2018-02-15T17:37:10","ENERGY":{"TotalStartTime":"2018-11-14T18:39:40","Total":6.294,"Yesterday":5.340,"Today":0.954,"Period":217,"Power":2635,"ApparentPower":2650,"ReactivePower":282,"Factor":0.99,"Voltage":227,"Current":11.661}}
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Pull result using status message 8
|
|
||||||
To request information you can use command ```status 8```.
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
stat/pow1/STATUS8 = {"StatusSNS":{"Time":"2018-11-15T08:54:18","ENERGY":{"TotalStartTime":"2018-11-14T18:39:40","Total":6.404,"Yesterday":5.340,"Today":1.064,"Power":2629,"ApparentPower":2645,"ReactivePower":288,"Factor":0.99,"Voltage":226,"Current":11.677}}}
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Meaning
|
|
||||||
The presented information has the following meaning:
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
Message | Unit | Description
|
|
||||||
---------------|------|-----------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
TotalStartTime | Date | DateTime of calculation for Total
|
|
||||||
Total | kWh | Total Energy usage including Today
|
|
||||||
Yesterday | kWh | Total Energy usage between 00:00 and 24:00 yesterday
|
|
||||||
Today | kWh | Total Energy usage today from 00:00 until now
|
|
||||||
Period | Wh | Energy usage between previous message and now
|
|
||||||
Power | W | Current effective power load
|
|
||||||
ApparentPower | W | Power load on the cable = sqrt(Power^2 + ReactivePower^2)
|
|
||||||
ReactivePower | W | Reactive load
|
|
||||||
Factor | | The ratio of the real power flowing to the load to
|
|
||||||
| | the apparent power in the circuit
|
|
||||||
Voltage | V | Current line voltage
|
|
||||||
Current | A | Current line current
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Debugging
|
|
||||||
Debugging the Sonoff Pow is a bit tricky as the serial interface has a **direct connection to one of the AC power lines**. I designed below schematic using two opto couplers seperating the AC connection on the **left** from the low voltage connection on the **right** allowing for serial control at 115200 baud and uploading of firmware up to 57600 baud while AC is connected.

## Self Protection for Sonoff Pow
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
ITEAD published a recall notice for the Sonoff Pow on march 1st 2017. Some units produced in december 2016 and january 2017 are not well suited for 16A. If you have one of these units you can decide to use them anyway by limiting the maximum current in software.
|
|
||||||
It is, in fact, possible to set a Maximum Power Threshold for the Sonoff Pow.
|
|
||||||
If the power measured by the device exceed the threshold set by the MQTT command MaxPower for a number of seconds set by the command MaxPowerHold the device will remain switched off for MaxPowerWindow seconds (to let it cool down, for example).
