I am using a Shelly EM to monitor the power usage of two circuits, One phase of the Dryer and the whole circuit for the Washing Machine. Monitoring only one phase of a two-phase circuit makes it inaccurate. But, I just did one phase because I only care to know if it’s off or on.
I used ESPHome to add it to HomeAssistant and this guide to setup the automation.
sweet! what are you using to detect the laundry cycle?
