Groups

Powercalc provides several options to group individual power sensors into a single one which sums the total. This can be very useful to get a glance about the consumption of all your lights together for example.

There are several group types available:

• Custom group

Create a group with a custom name and add individual power and energy sensors to it. You can also nest groups to create a hierarchy.

• Domain group

Create a group for all the power entities of a given domain. For example all lights or media players.

• Subtract group

Use this group to subtract the power of one or more entities from another entity.

• Standby group

This group is created by default and sum all power when devices are in standby mode.
