Hi,
I bought the ZigBee Metering Plug from LELLKI. On the manufacturer’s shop page they state that it measures electricity consumption, there is even a screenshot of the Smartthings app.

Meanwhile, after pairing with the hub, I have no energy meter option. Am I doing something wrong that I don’t have this option? Or is the manufacturer misleading by writing untruths?
Hub Smartthings Ver 2, software version 43.00004
What device type is it using when you check the IDE? If it’s “placeholder”, then it’s using an Edge driver. If not, you can try the DTH called “SmartPower Outlet”.
No, there is no edge driver - see the screenshots. Although there is a placeholder, it does not use a local driver.
I wrote to the shop, they advised me to change the DTH to “ZigBee Metering Plug”, but then although the measurement option showed up, it still didn’t measure anything. In addition, it stopped working from the app - I couldn’t turn it on or off.
So if you first paired it and it had Placeholder listed as Type in IDE then it is using an Edge Driver. You can’t change it from an Edge Driver at that point to a groovy Device Handler in IDE.
If you can try with a edge drive, I added your model TS011F to this version of driver. There are many similar to this model working fine with this driver
For pair with edge drive you need delete device from app
Install the driver in your hub from my shared channel here
Add new device with search nerby option

It is working locally now, I can switch it on & off, but unfortunately the energy monitor is not working…
I plugged in the hairdryer to get a quick high reading, but it’s been running for a few minutes and… nothing. It doesn’t refresh the data.
On top of that I still have some 4 kWh reading that I have no idea where it came from.
It may be a case like a TS011F switch that I bought from AliExpress. It also happened to other users too.
It has the necessary clusters 0702 y 0B04 to report power and energy, but it must have bad firmware and it doesn’t support the necessary attributes.
To see if it is the same case I would need to see the pairing logs with the CLI.
You can try to reboot the hub from the IDE, but I don’t have much hope.
If you have already tried with the DTH zigbee switch power and it does not report power and energy either, then it is a device that does not work well
Sorry, try with this driver version. I think it has a problem with the device configuration

Unistall device with app
Delete installed driver zigbee Switch power Mc from your Hub
Fron the channel install new vwesion zigbee Switch Power Mc
After update It’s finally working! A big thank you to @Mariano_Colmenarejo, you are great! I owe you a beer or wine. Let me know if you visit Barcelona.
They fixed something in the app so that the power and the W units would work again.
It was very strange that it reported total energy and did not show instant power
