Endpoint 7 seems to be updating per debug log. No attributes available for endpoint 7 in dashboard dropdown.
Just a note of thanks for your request to Aeotec! I am trying the new driver. I think it needs some tuning, but progress! Am still looking forward to the official driver.
The latest one is reporting. Still needs work but that’s big plus. Have to access attributes.
The power reading seems to get stuck on one reading for a minute or so, despite the fact I have the parameter set to report every 10 seconds. Then it goes back to every 10 seconds.
I don't know how much more effort Aeotec is going to put into this for Hubitat. I think @bcopeland should get involved.
As it is now, I've critiqued Chris Cheng's (Aeotec) driver several times, and he's modified the #5 version so that it sort of works.
It's a nice piece of equipment and deserves a good driver.
Hi,
I created a 3 clamp version with some more options. It will create child devices for the Consumption and optionally for Production as well. You can also exclude the more exotic measurements (kVarh, kVar, kVah and Power Factor) on a Refresh to reduce the zwave traffic a bit.
It is here on Github : Hubitat/Aeotec at main · reneboer/Hubitat · GitHub. Working on adding to HPM and more documentation.
Cheers Rene

Thank You Rene!
Successfully installed for my 2 clamp ZWA046.
Able to measure consumption for the following:
Current for 2 clamps in Amps
Power for 2 clamps in Watts
Power Total in Watts
Energy Total in KwH
Note: disabled Clamp 3 child device.
Power and Energy updates as expected, however Current did not update - created a rule to refresh Clamp 1 every minute, resulted both Clamps were updated.
Hi,
I do not think the HEM sends a report when the current changes, only when the power changes (when configured). So current will only be in the timed reports. Also the group report values are different for a 3 clamp vs a two clamp device and the end points map out differently, so you may be better off using the two clamp driver linked earlier in this tread (2 Apr 2025). I can see if I can make it so two clamps is supported as well, but I would need a gunny-pig for testing 
Also do not refresh the data too often or you can end up with slow downs in your z-wave network. Think if you really need those amps every minute for automations or just a nice to have.
Cheers Rene
I have just installed the Aeotec Energy Meter 8 and had 2 problems.
The first was that it wasn't appearing in Sharptools. I solved that by adding, capability 'Sensor' to the main driver code.
The second problem is that, Total Amperage, Power and Energy are all showing 0, but the endpoints all appear to be correct. I have tried every combination of Parameters I can think of without success! I need the totals to report so I can send them to InfluxDB.
Does anyone have any suggestions!
Thanks
Every time I look at this thing my head starts hurting.
Which is to say, I'm just taking a shallow stab at it:
Do you have the CT's installed correctly?
I am pretty sure I do as the correct phase readings appear under Endpoints 1,3 and 5 and the toal in Endpoint 7 This is what stumps me as if they ready correctly why is the total W and KWH still reading 0 on a three clamp device! Even if one is the wrong way around it should still read something!
Hi @42.42.bb3
What are the group report values you have? I have 50.529.027 on group 1 consumption and 202.116.108 on group 2 consumption. The rest I have at zero. The group 1 interval at 3600 and group 2 at 7200, rest zero.
Did you try to enable debugging and see what is shown in the logs?
Thanks Rene,
The 3 clamp version appears to be providing the correct values.
The 1 minute refresh for Current (amps) is only temporary while testing, eventually will be dialed back to a longer period between refresh.
Is voltage endpoint 1 measured by the 110v power cord? If so, how does the HEM get values for the second 110v leg (Voltage-endpoint 3).
Finally, when the HEM is moved from my garage subpanel to the original 66 year old 100A main House panel I am planning to have an alert when either leg exceeds 80A (80% of maximum rating of the panel.
I may try to use the Power (Watts) for the alert since it appesrs it does update without needing a separate rule to update. 80A x 120v = 9600W.
Thanks again for your recommendations.
Hi @msolymar
You can indeed set the power consumption threshold and percentage to trigger an on demand report if those value changes are exceeded. That should work in your case.
Cheers Rene
