Power Overconsumption Monitor Blueprint
This blueprint monitors power sensors for sustained overconsumption that might indicate device malfunction, overload, or safety concerns.
How It Works
- Triggers when power EXCEEDS a maximum threshold
- Requires power to stay high for a configurable duration (filters startup spikes)
- Optionally ignores readings below an idle threshold (device "off")
- Can automatically turn off the switch for safety
Use Cases
- Space heater drawing more than rated wattage (fire risk)
- Motor consuming excessive power (mechanical binding/failure)
- Appliance exceeding safe operating limits
- Extension cord/circuit overload protection
Naming Convention
The blueprint assumes sensors follow the pattern: sensor.<name>_power and the corresponding switch is: switch.<name>
Example: sensor.coffee_maker_power → switch.coffee_maker
