Is ZMPT101B AC Voltage Transformer Module Compatible with Home Assistant (ESPHome)?
This installation carries line voltage capable of causing severe electric shock, injury, or fire. Disconnect power at the breaker before wiring, verify with a non-contact voltage tester, and consult a qualified electrician if you are not confident working with mains circuits. Do not rely on this page as your only reference — confirm terminal assignments against the manufacturer's own documentation.
Electrical Specifications
Always confirm pin assignments against the manufacturer datasheet before wiring.
Compatibility Overview
Active single-phase AC voltage transformer module measuring grid AC voltage from 100V to 250V AC.

Terminal assignments for this device
Terminal diagram not shown.
This device carries mains voltage, and its terminal markings vary by model and revision. Publishing a generic AC terminal diagram here would risk you wiring live conductors from a drawing that does not match the part in your hand — so we do not print one. Use the manufacturer's own installation sheet for terminal identification.

Wire, Flash, Adopt, Check
Wire it up
Follow the bus reference above. The host pins in the configuration are defaults — any free GPIO of the right kind will do, as long as the YAML names the pin you actually used.
Flash the configuration
Create a new device in the ESPHome dashboard (the Home Assistant add-on) and paste the configuration below into it, or save it as emb_esp32_current_zmpt101b.yaml and run esphome run emb_esp32_current_zmpt101b.yaml. The first flash goes over USB. If it is not detected, hold BOOT button for 3s to put it in download mode. Every update after that is over the air.
Adopt it in Home Assistant
Settings → Devices & Services. A node on the same network shows up as a discovered ESPHome device within a minute of joining Wi-Fi; choose Configure and enter the API encryption key from your secrets.yaml. If discovery does not find it, add the ESPHome integration by hand with the node's IP address.
Check it works
The entities on this page appear under the device in Home Assistant and update at the configured interval. The ESPHome log (Logs in the dashboard, or esphome logs) reports the setup of each component and any bus scan results at boot.

# The ZMPT101B outputs a scaled copy of the mains waveform biased at
# half its supply. ct_clamp measures the RMS of an AC-coupled ADC input,
# which is exactly that. Calibrate: read the raw value with a known mains
# voltage on a meter, then replace the second pair below.

Before you flash:
the !secret values come from your
secrets.yaml, and the GPIO numbers are host-side
defaults rather than properties of this part — change them to match how you actually wired it.
