## Power & Energy Sensors
Many VeSync outlets support power & energy monitoring. These data are exposed as diagnostic sensor entities alongside the outlet
itself. Note that prior versions of the integration exposed these as state attributes on the outlet switch entity.
| Sensor | Description | Example |
| --------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------- |
| `sensor.<outlet name>_current_power` | The present power consumption of the switch in watts | 7.89 |
| `sensor.<outlet name>_energy_use_today` | The kilowatt hours used by the switch during the previous 24 hours | 0.12 |
## Outlet Exposed Attributes
VeSync outlets will expose the following details for only the smart outlets. Energy monitoring not available for in-wall switches.
| Attribute | Description | Example |
| ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------- |
| `current_power_w` | The present power consumption of the switch in watts. | 100 |
| `today_energy_kwh` | The kilowatt hours used by the switch during the previous 24 hours. | 0.12 |
| `voltage` | Current voltage of the device | 120.32 |
| `weekly_energy_total` | Total energy usage for week starting from Monday 12:01AM in kWh | 14.74 |
| `monthly_energy_total` | Total energy usage for month starting from 12:01AM on the first in kWh | 52.30 |

## Extracting Attribute data
In order to get the attributes readings from supported devices, such as energy from outlets or fan attributes, you'll have to create a [template sensor](/integrations/template#state-based-template-sensors/).
