P1 Monitor is a piece of software that can be installed on a Raspberry Pi or other Linux-based system. It reads the data from your smart meter via the serial port (P1), such as your energy consumption, but also that of gas or a water meter. {% note %} If you’re not using **P1 Monitor** software, you’re likely looking for the [DSMR Smart Meter](/integrations/dsmr/) integration, which connects directly to DSMR-compatible smart meters. {% endnote %} {% include integrations/config_flow.md %} {% configuration_basic %} Host: description: The IP address or hostname of your P1 Monitor instance. Port: description: The port number of your P1 Monitor instance. The default port is `80`. {% endconfiguration_basic %} ## Data updates The integration will poll your P1 Monitor instance every 5 seconds to update the data in Home Assistant. ## Sensors The P1 Monitor platform mainly provides sensors that you can use in your [energy dashboard](/energy). ### SmartMeter Read out what your meter readings are for energy consumption/yield, see what your current power consumption is and in which tariff period you are currently. - Gas Consumption (m3) - Power Consumption / Production (W) - Energy Consumption Low/High (kWh) - Energy Production Low/High (kWh) - Energy Tariff Period (low / high) {% note %} By default, the gas consumption entity is disabled. To use it, you need to enable it. {% endnote %} ### Phases See per phase what your voltage, current and power consumption/production is. - Voltage phases L1/2/3 (V) - Current Phases L1/2/3 (A) - Power consumed phases L1/2/3 (W) - Power Produced phases L1/2/3 (W) ### WaterMeter {% important %} You need to run at least version **1.1.0** of P1 Monitor, to use a water meter. {% endimportant %} See how much water you consume per day, in total and the number of counted pulses. - Water Consumption - day (liters) - Water Consumption - total (m3) - Pulse Count ### Settings You can use the rates set in P1 Monitor for your calculations in Home Assistant. - Gas Consumption Price - Energy Consumption Price Low/High - Energy Production Price Low/High ## Removing the integration This integration follows standard integration removal. No extra steps are required. {% include integrations/remove_device_service.md %}
