Handling of meter changes when using SumDelta

[mbrock70]

I'm sure that

• This issue is still present in the current beta version of this adapter
• There is no other (open) issue with the same topic (use the search!)
• This issue is not described in the adapter documentation / FAQ (read the docs!)

The problem

From time to time, e.g. in Germany, it is mandatory that the energy or water meter (water meter every 4 years) is changed and the consumption meter is therefore reset (not to 0, but to a small value > 0 through calibration tests).

How does the adapter handle such behaviors without creating negative values ​​that can distort the log entries created from them?

Is there a way or best practice to handle such an occurrence?

Is there a plan to integrate a corresponding function?
