Describe the issue you are experiencing

For example: Shelly 1PM Gen4 - added to Home Assistant via Wi-Fi (native Shelly integration) and via Zigbee

Wi-Fi version of the device in HASS has sensors named:

  • Energy
  • Energy consumed
  • Energy returned

Zigbee version of the same device in Home Assistant has same sensors named:

  • Summation delivered
  • Summation received

What is Summation!? Why don't they have the same name in both integration? And in Zigbee integration there is no "Energy". Assuming is Energy is "Energy consumed" minus "Energy returned" the same variable should also be exposed in Zigbee version of the device. In order to have the same features and same naming consistency no matter which way we use the device.
