Independent electronic meter?
Hi, I’m looking for a product that allows me to monitor my home’s electricity consumption. I’ve seen plenty of mini readers that allow you to see each appliance consumption, and I know I could be monitoring the meter the utility company has installed in my house. But honestly I do not understand those meters very much so I wonder if there is any other simpler solution out there?
Please when answering consider that I want to monitor my whole house consumption (mot just few appliances), and that I am aware that I may have to modify some of my current electric installation
you need to replicate the meter at your house exactly. This means adding new lines from the existing, to the new and from the new to your main breaker. It would most like sit just above your existing meter.
You have a contract that says the existing meter is the only meter that can be used for billing unless you can prove it is broken. To prove its broken you will have to set up an NIST traceable meter. NIST – National Institute of Standards and Technology.
what you may need is just a simple monitor that can be read inside like this one http://www.powermeterstore.com/p3528/the_energy_detective.php
