Power Guard
Protect your home from power spikes — controls EV chargers, heaters and more to keep you within your grid limit and reduce your capacity tariff.

Power Guard monitors your household power consumption in real-time using a HAN electricity meter and automatically controls devices when you approach your grid limit. It prevents costly peak penalties and tripped breakers by intelligently managing EV chargers, thermostats and other appliances.
Supports Easee and Zaptec chargers, Easee Equalizer as a power meter, and all common HAN meters (Frient, Futurehome, Tibber Pulse, Aidon, Kaifa). Works with any thermostat brand.
When power consumption gets too high, Power Guard steps in — reducing charger current, lowering thermostat temperatures or turning off devices in your chosen priority order. Once consumption drops to a safe level, everything is automatically restored. Set it up once and let it protect your home around the clock.

Power Guard
A hot-water price peak is active
True while at least one configured hot-water heater is being held for a qualified price peak.
Power Guard

Power Guard
Power is over limit
Checks whether current power consumption exceeds the configured limit right now.

Report Charger: Power (W) W; measured Measured current (A, optional) A (optional)
Report a real new measurement, including 0 W when charging stops. Optionally include actual measured amperes from the same reading, not the requested current limit. Do not repeatedly send cached readings as new measurements.
Power Guard
Report Charger: Power (W) W
Use the charger's actual Power tag in watts, including 0 W when charging stops. No amperes are needed. Report only real new readings, never repeatedly timestamp cached values as new.
