Growatt Thor EV Charger

[SvenPook]

I'm trying to configure the OCPP integration for use with my Growatt Thor EV Charger. I haven't been succesful. Can anyone tell me what the various settings should be?

The Growatt Thor is working correctly, tested and verified with the ShonePhone app and the Growatt Dashboard.

Hi, in ShinePhone app open GroHome section -> Select the wallbox -> Ap Mode -> Server Settings.
Set here your ocpp server (in home assistant 'http://yourhassip:ocppserverport")
Password for Server settings '000000'
In home assistant ocpp integration put in wallbox id the serial number of the wallbox (ex 'WWJ0000XXXXXXXX')
Remember that the wallbox will not work with ShinePhone app if you change the ocpp server.

I also have the Growatt Thor EV changer with 11KWh/16 amps.
To use the solar power i have to reduce the amps from 16 to the minimum, which is 6 apms (4,1KWh). I can do this today in the ShinePhone app.
But in Home Assistant, I'm only able to start/stop the charching in the OCPP integration.
Do you have any idea on how to set/change the amps during charching. So that I only charge when the sun i shining, and my solarpanels can at most only deliver about 7KWh (about 10 amps)

I’ve got a solution for that: numeric slider and a bunch of statements in a choose constructor. I’ll send it later today.Verstuurd vanaf mijn iPhoneOp 26 aug 2024 om 00:07 heeft OleMadsen1971 ***@***.***> het volgende geschreven: I also have the Growatt Thor EV changer with 11KWh/16 amps.

this is the automation that I have. Note that the values under 6 do not work. 6 amps is the minimum that can be used with the charger. I take the input from a slider ( input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current ) and set a service shell command accordingly. choose: - conditions: - condition: template value_template: >- {{ (states("input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current") | float) == 1.0 }} sequence: - device_id: 4ad5d9619c3562b43fb904d760020361 domain: mobile_app type: notify message: val 1 - service: shell_command.thor_set_power_01 data: {} - conditions: - condition: template value_template: >- {{ (states("input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current") | float) == 2.0 }} sequence: - device_id: 4ad5d9619c3562b43fb904d760020361 domain: mobile_app type: notify message: val 2 - service: shell_command.thor_set_power_02 data: {} - conditions: - condition: template value_template: >- {{ (states("input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current") | float) == 3.0 }} sequence: - device_id: 4ad5d9619c3562b43fb904d760020361 domain: mobile_app type: notify message: val 3 - service: shell_command.thor_set_power_03 data: {} - conditions: - condition: template value_template: >- {{ (states("input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current") | float) == 4.0 }} sequence: - device_id: 4ad5d9619c3562b43fb904d760020361 domain: mobile_app type: notify message: val 4 - service: shell_command.thor_set_power_04 data: {} - conditions: - condition: template value_template: >- {{ (states("input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current") | float) == 5.0 }} sequence: - device_id: 4ad5d9619c3562b43fb904d760020361 domain: mobile_app type: notify message: val 5 - service: shell_command.thor_set_power_05 data: {} - conditions: - condition: template value_template: >- {{ (states("input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current") | float) == 6.0 }} sequence: - device_id: 4ad5d9619c3562b43fb904d760020361 domain: mobile_app type: notify message: val 6 - service: shell_command.thor_set_power_06 data: {} - conditions: - condition: template value_template: >- {{ (states("input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current") | float) == 7.0 }} sequence: - device_id: 4ad5d9619c3562b43fb904d760020361 domain: mobile_app type: notify message: val 7 - service: shell_command.thor_set_power_07 data: {} - conditions: - condition: template value_template: >- {{ (states("input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current") | float) == 8.0 }} sequence: - device_id: 4ad5d9619c3562b43fb904d760020361 domain: mobile_app type: notify message: val 8 - service: shell_command.thor_set_power_08 data: {} - conditions: - condition: template value_template: >- {{ (states("input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current") | float) == 9.0 }} sequence: - device_id: 4ad5d9619c3562b43fb904d760020361 domain: mobile_app type: notify message: val 9 - service: shell_command.thor_set_power_09 data: {} - conditions: - condition: template value_template: >- {{ (states("input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current") | float) == 10.0 }} sequence: - device_id: 4ad5d9619c3562b43fb904d760020361 domain: mobile_app type: notify message: val 10 - service: shell_command.thor_set_power_10 data: {} - conditions: - condition: template value_template: >- {{ (states("input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current") | float) == 11.0 }} sequence: - device_id: 4ad5d9619c3562b43fb904d760020361 domain: mobile_app type: notify message: val 11 - service: shell_command.thor_set_power_11 data: {} - conditions: - condition: template value_template: >- {{ (states("input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current") | float) == 12.0 }} sequence: - device_id: 4ad5d9619c3562b43fb904d760020361 domain: mobile_app type: notify message: val 12 - service: shell_command.thor_set_power_12 data: {} - conditions: - condition: template value_template: >- {{ (states("input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current") | float) == 13.0 }} sequence: - device_id: 4ad5d9619c3562b43fb904d760020361 domain: mobile_app type: notify message: val 13 - service: shell_command.thor_set_power_13 data: {} - conditions: - condition: template value_template: >- {{ (states("input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current") | float) == 14.0 }} sequence: - device_id: 4ad5d9619c3562b43fb904d760020361 domain: mobile_app type: notify message: val 14 - service: shell_command.thor_set_power_14 data: {} - conditions: - condition: template value_template: >- {{ (states("input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current") | float) == 15.0 }} sequence: - device_id: 4ad5d9619c3562b43fb904d760020361 domain: mobile_app type: notify message: val 15 - service: shell_command.thor_set_power_15 data: {} - conditions: - condition: template value_template: >- {{ (states("input_number.growatt_thor_max_charge_current") | float) == 16.0 }} sequence: - device_id: 4ad5d9619c3562b43fb904d760020361 domain: mobile_app type: notify message: val 16 - service: shell_command.thor_set_power_16 data: {}

I don't know where to put your script?
The slider in my HA does not change the 6A to 16A? It does not do anything?
And mine is named "charger_maximum_current"
Anf if I create a script within the Charger settings it creates this YAML, where I also can see the device ID is different from Yours.
But again, it does not set the "Max Output Current Set(6~32A):" setting on my Growatt charger, exactly the same as the slider, that does not change anything?
So I'm a bit lost? Mayby it's the initial setup of OCPP ?
