Entities Reference

Entities Reference

Each inverter serial number creates a separate device in Home Assistant. All entity IDs follow the pattern:

{domain}.{device_name_slug}_{entity_name_slug}

Because HA generates the slug from the device alias (set by the inverter or the Sunsynk app), the exact prefix will vary. To find your prefix: go to Settings → Devices & Services → Sunsynk → your device → any entity and note the entity ID.

In the tables below, {prefix} represents your inverter's entity ID prefix (e.g. sunsynk or my_house_5kw).

Numbers (writable settings)

Number entities allow you to change inverter settings directly from HA. They appear on the device page under Controls.

Changes are written to the inverter via the Sunsynk API. After writing, the integration requests a data refresh to confirm the new value.

State classes and long-term statistics

Entities with state_class: total_increasing (energy counters) are automatically included in HA's Long-Term Statistics and visible in the Energy Dashboard. You can use them in:

• Settings → Energy — configure your solar and grid entities for the energy dashboard
• History — view historical data for any entity
• Statistics cards in Lovelace — bar charts of daily/monthly totals
