SMA EV Charger integration for Home Assistant

Home Assistant (https://www.home-assistant.io) Integration Component

This custom component integrates the SMA EV Charger into Home Assistant.

Installation

HACS - Home Assistant Community Store (recommended)

This method needs to have HACS installed correctly. For more info on HACS refer to here.

Automatically with My Home Assistant

Click on the following button to have the SMA EV Charger integration added automatically to HACS. Once the installation is done, go on with the Configuration below.

Manually in HACS

If My Home Assistant does not work for you, you might consider installing the SMA EV Charger integration manually using HACS. For this you need to add a custom repository following the instructions here.

When asked, use the custom repository link https://github.com/alengwenus/ha-sma-ev-charger

Select the category type integration

Once the repository is downloaded click the INSTALL button (still in HACS). Go on with the Configuration below.

Manual installation

You probably do not want to do this! Use one of the HACS methods above unless you know what you are doing and have a good reason as to why you are installing manually

1. Using the tool of choice open the directory (folder) for your HA configuration (where you find configuration.yaml)
2. If you do not have a custom_components directory there, you need to create it
3. In the custom_components directory create a new folder called smaev
4. Download all the files from the custom_components/smaev/ directory in this repository
5. Place the files you downloaded in the new directory you created
6. Restart HA to load the new integration
7. Go on with the Configuration below

Configuration

Attention: To be able to use all entities, an installer or administrator account (as defined in the SMA EV Charger web UI) must be used!

1. Click Here to directly add a SMA EV Charger integration or
   a. In Home Assistant, go to Settings -> Integrations
   b. Click + Add Integrations and select SMA EV Charger
   
2. Enter your SMA EV Charger network address and your credentials (as defined in the wallbox web-ui)
3. Change the SSL setting to your needs (e.g. if you access the wallbox through a proxy)
4. Click Submit

After successful installation all entities are automatically added to Home Assistant. You may then add them to your dashboards as you like.
