Is it possible to access the current Watt consuming (not KWH total) from critical Loads in Node Red?

Hi,

Is it possible to access the current Watt consuming (not KWH total) from critical Loads in Node Red?

The Value is exposed in the Gui but I can't find it in Node Red.

...this is logged as the Consumption on Output

...do not get confused by the different numbers in the screenshot. For me, mqtt is normally lagging one "tick" behind the data shown on the GX Monitor.

In order to get total power as shown on the GX, you'll need to add the power from each phase here.
