    Hi,

    Could you please try the below whether it provides the result that you want?

     

    Average =
    AVERAGEX (
        FILTER (
            ADDCOLUMNS (
                VALUES ( 'DataTable'[Name] ),
                "@ERecsperhour", CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'DataTable'[E-Recs per Hour] ) )
            ),
            [@ERecsperhour] <> 0
        ),
        [@ERecsperhour]
    )

    Average = AVERAGE('DataTable'[E-Recs per Hour])
    = AVERAGEX('DataTable', 'DataTable'[E-Recs per Hour])

    the calculation of average is based on the rows of 'DataTable' in the current filter context; it has nothing to do with the calculation in the table viz.

     

    AVG = 
    VAR __n = VALUES( 'DataTable'[Name] )
    RETURN
        SUMX( __n, CALCULATE( SUM( 'DataTable'[E-Recs per Hour] ) ) )
            / COUNTROWS( __n )

    Hi Nathaniel_C 
    Here is the sample file with the solutoion https://www.dropbox.com/t/M7zX39R3UdSCO9SR

    You want to calculate the average of the sum. The row level average won't help. Can follow this 

    Average New = 
    AVERAGEX ( 
        VALUES ( 'DataTable'[Name] ),
        CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'DataTable'[E-Recs per Hour] ) )
    )
