The quotation marks indicate that the values are Strings (text representations) no the numerical values. If you want the numerical value, then you will need to parse them.

You can use a function node to parse the values as follows:

```auto
msg.current = Number(msg.current)
return msg;

```

But you will have to repeate the first line for any specific values you want.
