Integrate IAMMETER Wi-Fi Energy Meter into Home Assistant by HA core integration

1. Introduction

Integrating IAMMETER Wi-Fi home assistant power meter into Home Assistant provides effective real-time energy monitoring solutions. IAMMETER supports multiple integration methods with Home Assistant:

 

Direct Integration: Simplest setup (covered in this tutorial).

Modbus/TCP Sensor: Provides higher performance, enabling data updates every second. Learn more.

MQTT Sensor: Flexible integration using MQTT protocol. Learn more.

Home Assistant is a popular open-source home automation platform (official site). IAMMETER energy meters seamlessly integrate with Home Assistant, offering precise energy data for smart home and solar PV applications.
