<p>A node specifically written to convert power (watts) to energy (kWh).</p>
<h3 id="inputs">Inputs</h3>
<p>The node accepts a msg.payload input in the format of a number (example 6) or a string (example "6") provided that the string only contains numbers.</p>
<h3 id="outputs">Outputs</h3>
<p>The msg.payload contains the energy output, which can be set in the node config to be;</p>
<ul>
<li>Joules</li>
<li>Watt hour</li>
<li>Kilowatt hour or</li>
<li>Megawatt hour</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="details">Details</h3>
<p>As the calculation is dependent upon the relationship between the amount of power used, (or generated) <strong>and</strong> the interval between consecutive data points; <strong>interval x power = energy</strong> the very first value fed into the node will not produce an output, because the node requires a second value to be able to calculate the interval between the two values. </p>
<p>After subsequent feed inputs, the node will output the corresponding energy used or generated within that interval. </p>
<p>The Timeout setting in the node's configuration, should be set to at least the maximum interval between successive readings. This is to avoid the situation where for example, a sensor is taken off line, develops a fault or there is a communication problem, resulting in a break of several hours between readings and the calculation - <strong>interval x power = energy</strong> would then be inaccurate.</p>
