A Home Assistant integration for SolarEdge inverters using Modbus/TCP. It supports single inverters, multiple inverters, meters, batteries, and many other improvements over other integrations that didn't work well with a multi-device setup.
It is designed to communicate locally using Modbus/TCP where you have a single Leader (Master) inverter connected with one or more Follower (Slave) inverters chained using the RS485 bus. Inverters can have up to three meters and two batteries.
- Inverter support for 1 to 32 SolarEdge inverters.
- Meter support for 1 to 3 meters per inverter.
- Battery support for 1 or 2 batteries per inverter.
- Automatically detects meters and batteries.
- Polling frequency configuration option (1 to 86400 seconds).
- Configurable starting inverter device ID.
- Connects using Modbus/TCP - no cloud dependencies.
- Informational sensor for device and its attributes
- Supports status and error reporting sensors.
- User friendly configuration through Config Flow.
Requires Home Assistant 2022.2.0 and newer.

Fixing #21 causes HA to recreate entities. Updating in place will cause existing entities will be seen as duplicates and HA will suffix them with _2. If this happens you can either update everything to use the new names, or follow the update procedure to avoid renaming. This assumes the default entity names; custom names will have to be handled manually in any case.
