Hi @Kathy and all,
If you guys do have an absolute need to see your grid voltage and frequency in close to real-time, here’s a simple piece of python code that illustrates how to do it using the informal API. I think the API is rate limited to one update_realtime every minute so set my polling to 60 seconds. You could change to a longer interval to meet your needs, send the print to a file and change the time and other formatting as needed.
from sense_energy import Senseable
import time
sense = Senseable()
sense.authenticate('login@myemail.com', 'password')
while True:
sense.update_realtime()
t = time.asctime(time.localtime())
print (t," ", sense.active_voltage, "V", sense.active_frequency, "Hz")
time.sleep(60)
Here’s a sample of the output.
