## Network UPS Tools for Hass.io ## Network UPS Tools - netclient
[Network UPS Tools](http://networkupstools.org/) can be used to control and manage several power devices like [Uninterruptible Power Supplies](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uninterruptible_power_supply). This [Hass.io](https://home-assistant.io/hassio/) plugin provides the nessecary daemon to make use of the [Home Assistant NUT Sensor](https://home-assistant.io/components/sensor.nut/).
The default configuration should work with any [usbhid-ups](http://networkupstools.org/docs/man/usbhid-ups.html) compatible UPS. They can be added to `configuration.yaml` by adding:
```
sensor
- platform: nut
username: nut
password: nut
resources:
- ups.load
- ups.status
[...]
```
[Network UPS Tools](http://networkupstools.org/) is used to connect to another machine running the same software.
You just need to specify some connection parameters. You can also configure the shutdown delay (in minutes).
