ESPHome - Aurora Inverter Monitor

This project aims the integration between Power-One (ABB) Aurora Inverters and ESPHome using an ESP8266/ESP32 board.

preview

The communication runs over the RS485 interface of the Inverter using a TTL-to-RS485 moudule. The module is attached to the ESP board using the pins declared in InverterMonitor.h:

#define RX 14               //GPIO14
#define TX 27               //GPIO27
#define TX_CONTROL_GPIO 26  //GPIO26

The Aurora Communication Protocol used in the communication is handled by the jrbenito/ABBAurora library.

ESPHome Sensors

This Inverter Monitor exploits the communication library to expose some of the available inverter's data:

Sensor name Unit of measurement Accuracy decimals
v_in_1 V 2
v_in_2 V 2
i_in_1 A 2
i_in_2 A 2
power_in_1 W 0
power_in_2 W 0
power_in_total W 0
power_peak_today W 0
power_peak_max W 0
inverter_temp °C 2
booster_temp °C 2
cumulated_energy_today Wh 0
cumulated_energy_week Wh 0
cumulated_energy_month Wh 0
cumulated_energy_year Wh 0
cumulated_energy_total Wh 0

NOTE: power_in_total is the sum of power_in_1 and power_in_2 values.

More sensors can be created based on the DSP_VALUE_TYPE enum values.

An additional text_sensor named connection_status is exposed to monitor the connection between the ESP and the inverter.
