| Feb 28, 2018 at 14:15 | comment | added | NightLightFighter | I know there are clamp power meters that work for non-pluggable devices. An example being this one: fluke.com/fluke/phen/clamp-meters/fluke-345.htm?pid=56070 but I can't name a specific power company wich lends out these. I would do the research around the companies I know, but it doesn't seem to be geographically applicable to OP. My first try would be to contact your local Greenpeace or any similar environmental organization. They tend to be pro-energy-saving and usually they know a lot about tricks like where to borrow a power meter. | |
