The effect:

2/IamMeter in Node-RED Setting

1. yourIP:1880 -> Settings -> Palette -> Install -> node-red-dashboard

   

   node-red-contrib-modbus

   

    

2. import iammeter_ModbusTCP2relay.json:

   

   

   

3. then open yourIP:1880/ui:

    

3/Testing on the spot**

Use an electric kettle to simulate changes in power:

1.open the electric kettle,

2.Modbus_Power=1596W > 1000W,then Sonoff S26 Relay turn on.

3.close the electric kettle,

4.Modbus_Power=64W < 500W,then Sonoff S26 Relay turn off.
