I'm looking for a simple watt meter where I can connect both lines of my split phase and get a reading of how many watts and amps are flowing through.

I've seen something similar for solar systems but it's only one phase.

  • What do you want to meter? Your whole house, some subset of loads, an individual load? Dec 26, 2019 at 0:50
  • I know of Sense, Curb, EKM, and Smappee. I'm just looking for something simpler for the whole house.

  • Is your utility kWh meter a "smart meter" (with a LCD/digital display) or an old-style electromechanical meter (with dials)? Dec 26, 2019 at 1:06

    It's Smart, but it only displays the current meter number, nothing else.

Take a look at a system called TED (The Energy Detective), it can be used to monitor the whole house or individual circuits, or both and gives you a simple interface either stand-alone or to your smart phone or tablet.
