Has anybody here ever installed a whole house watt meter? A customer of mine is interested in one, but I've never installed one before. Any brands or models you'd recommend?

I use the Currentcost EnviR. It costs $129 to install, has an independent wireless transmitter to a meter that you can place anywhere in your house. There are several different websites that can receive the data and maintain graphs of usage. Some are subscription, but meniscus.co.uk is free.

Google whole home energy monitor and you will find lots of choices. I picked the EnviR based on features and cost.

(I'm guessing the customer is looking at this for a consumers point of view.)

And you can also get a reader for it.

I've been wanting to install a monitoring system in my own panel for every branch circuit… but gotta upgrade my panel first, my old CEB doesn't have enough space.

One of these days!
