Emporia Smart Home Energy Monitor with 16 50A Circuit Level Sensors | Real Time Electricity Monitor/Meter | Solar/Net Metering
I ordered this to gain valuable data on what power the house was using and where.
Once I had got a base reading, I was able to look at high energy usage items and time of day use to reduce the amount of energy I was wasting every day.
After my analysis and actions taken, I reduced my energy consumption around 25% per day.
Areas monitored by circuit:
- Electric Shower
- Cooker
- Socket Ring
- Left Sockets
- Right Sockets
- Right Down Stairs Sockets
- Upstairs Lights
- Left Down Stairs Lights
- Solar and Batteries
