I've had success using the <a
href="http://www.efergy.us/index.php/usa/products-usa/electricity-monitors.html">Efergy
Elite True Power</a> for several customers lately. It is very
useful as a feedback device for customers, it isn't a billing
grade meter. Very similar to TED but it transmits data via 433 MHz
radio instead of power line carrier. Noisy inverters don't seem to
bother it. Efergy meters are ETL listed, and are considerably
cheaper than TED.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">Does anyone
know of a user-friendly monitor, using non-intrusive CT’s,
for measuring real-time kw and cumulative kwh? The TED is
way too detailed and expensive for my application, and I
don’t want to hardwire a meter socket into my load
circuit(s) if I don’t have to. This is to monitor an entire
panel or circuits from it, not plug-in devices. Thanks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
