I have at least 4 TUYA BSD29 Smart Plugs which are, apparently, not in the library... how would I add them? 2023-06-06 13:09:42.061 DEBUG (MainThread) [custom_components.powercalc.discovery] switch.living_room_entertainment_plug_2: Auto discovered model (manufacturer=TuYa, model=Smart plug (with power monitoring by polling) (BSD29)) |

You can measure there power consumption by using some manual power meter which is quite precise. |

Ok... got it... seems straight forward, other than having a power measurement device! Thanks... I'll have a go at it. |

Zhurui PR10 is a very good one which I used to measure some smart plugs.
You'll need to measure both the power when the relay is on and off. Without any appliance connected.
Than it's a matter of copying the folder and model.json of another smart plug profile (in custom_components/powercalc/data directory) and modify accordingly.
You can bring it into powercalc library by making a Pull Request.
