Describe the issue

I have manually setup four power sensors. The sensors are reading power, they can be displayed in the view with real time and accumulated values, but they will not show in the Energy tab. The sensors have been setup with 0 standby power and nominal ON power only. I have tried setting these up in YAML and in the GUI. Initially, one of the sensors displayed for a few hours, but it was gone when i refreshed the following morning. I've exhausted my options.

Reproduction steps

1. Install Powercalc

2. Add powercalc: to configuration.yaml

3. Manually create sensors using the GUI

4. Sensors fail to show in the Energy tab.

5. Initial focus is on Bathroom Heat sensor

6. What else can I do? ...

Please make sure you understand the difference between power and energy, see https://docs.powercalc.nl/troubleshooting/faq/#what-is-the-difference-between-power-and-energy.

Powercalc always creates a power sensor, and optionally an energy sensor (depending on the toggle create energy sensor). You can only add energy sensors to the energy dashboard, no power sensors. Looking at the logs you should have sensor.bathroom_heat_energy for example.

You'll have to add them to the energy dashboard in Settings -> Dashboard -> Energy under individual devices. All energy sensors created by powercalc should be selectable there.

Might be good to verify if the energy sensor actually records values by looking under Developer tools.
