Controlling Air conditioner using Demand Enabled Response Device per AS/NZS 4755 and Iammeter
Here is a project I have been working on for a few months with my iammeters.
Its fully described here https://community.home-assistant.io/t/controlling-air-conditioner-using-demand-enabled-response-device-per-as-nzs-4755/481353/2
But briefly we use an iammeter usng Modbus TCP to send solar power to Home assistant
And a shelly UNI temperature sensor on my hot water to measure water temperature
And a mains powered ewelink 4 channel relay
To control the amount of power consumed by an air conditioner which is compliant with AS/ANZS 4755 Demand response enabled device on my air conditioner.
I had to measure the power consumptionn in watts of the air conditioner with a Shelly PM 1. Eventually, I'd like to replace that with an Iammeter as its a more robust device
But when its all back together, no one will know.
Enjoy!. Please feel fee to comment on the post I have linked to.
ANd a facebook post on the biggest Aussie energy forum https://www.facebook.com/groups/MyEfficientElectricHome/posts/5854278871283174/
Thanks for your sharing.
This is the direct URL in the home assistant forum (It can be visited directly, without the login requirements of facebook. )
We are willing to provide the replacement of WEM3080 to be installed in the air conditioner.
Please contact us in our feedback system. https://www.iammeter.com/docs/feedback-and-notification
Thanks again.

Thanks very much! I can certainly use another iammeter for this project!
I lost the original post before saving and forgot to include the Home assistant link on the second attempt. I've now updated the original post.
