The pca switch {% term integration %} allows you to control the state of your ELV PCA 301 smart switch. You need an 868 MHz interface like the JeeLink flashed with the pca-hex firmware.

Configuration

To use your PCA 301 switch or socket in your installation, add the following to your {% term "configuration.yaml" %} file. {% include integrations/restart_ha_after_config_inclusion.md %}

# Example configuration.yaml entry
elv:
  device: SERIAL_PORT

This {% term integration %} 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.
