Flow when electricity goes down

Marcelklim

I have a plug from fibaro. It does have several parameters. What I see is that it recognizes if electricity is on 0r off. How do I make a flow to report that electricity went off. This is critical for one specific electrical device in my home. Suggestions are very welcome.

Just take a look at the topic flow that works, you could use the idea for a washingmachine that is ready

At this moment it does not work. The way the flow should work is as if there is a electricity fall. So all electricity goes down, also homey goes down. In my flow i had a push notice, but i do not receive that notice when I turn off the electricity.

But when the power of Homey goes down there will be nothing to send because Homey is offline If you use Homey on a UPS/external battery your plug will stay seeing power

Describe better what you want to do, wich device, what kind of plug (brand/signal) can help us to help you

I use a fibaro plug. When electricity goes down, my wifi network goes down and also homey goes down. Is there a way to get afterwards a message?

Out off band Management as seen in complex IT environments is omitted in Homey as all Friends and Husbands already have an Alerting system* for broken Wifi,  Internet and Home Automation.

But to try to alert whenever Homey just started use the Candy App and send an Push notification on this trigger:

I have my home made UPS which keep alive Homey, the router, NAS and a couple of surveillance cameras. There is also a relay which is wired into a Fibaro Universal Sensor. When the main power goes off, then the relay drops its contacts and I get a notification.
