# init(stateOfCharge:direction:power:energy:)

Initializes an electrical measurement for the electrical load event.

## Declaration

```swift
init(stateOfCharge: Int, direction: ElectricityFlowDirection, power: Measurement<UnitPower>, energy: Measurement<UnitEnergy>)
```

## Parameters

- `stateOfCharge`: The remaining capacity available in a battery
- `direction`: Specifies whether electricity is being imported from the grid or exported to the grid.
- `power`: Power in milli-watts
- `energy`: The accumulated electrical energy consumed or generated by the device in milli-watt hours. The accumulator is reset on ElectricalLoadEvent/Session/State/end.
