The `pca` switch platform allows you to control the state of your [ELV PCA 301 smart switch](https://www.elv.de/funkschaltsteckdose-fuer-energiekostenmonitor-pca-301.html). You need an 868 MHz interface like the [JeeLink](https://www.digitalsmarties.net/products/jeelink) flashed with the [pca-hex firmware](https://github.com/mhop/fhem-mirror/blob/master/fhem/FHEM/firmware/JeeLink_PCA301.hex).
## {% linkable_title Configuration %}
To use your PCA 301 switch or socket in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
switch:
- platform: pca
device: SERIAL_PORT
```
This platform will add all PCA 301 switches which are in range. You can read the total used energy in KWh and the current power in Watt.
