Technical Definition
The register device name L2 Power at address 14 is used to monitor device name l2 power on the Sdm630.
- Protocol: Modbus RTU
- Data Type: FP32
- Unit: W
- Access: Read Only
How to Read (Python pymodbus)
Use this code snippet to read this specific value via RS485:
from pymodbus.client.sync import ModbusSerialClient
client = ModbusSerialClient(method='rtu', port='/dev/ttyUSB0', baudrate=9600)
client.connect()
# Read device_name L2 Power (Address: 14)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=14, count=2, unit=1)
if not result.isError():
print(f"Raw Value: {result.registers}")
else:
print("Error reading register")
client.close()
Integration (Home Assistant)
Paste this into your configuration.yaml:
- platform: modbus_controller
name: "device_name L2 Power"
address: 14
value_type: FP32
unit_of_measurement: "W"

💡 Engineer's Insight
Analysis: Phase L2 active power. Unit: Watts (W). Represents real power consumed by the load on L2.
Troubleshooting: Zero value typically means no load or zero current on L2. Check L2 current and voltage readings for consistency.
