This might be a little overkill, but there's a manufacturer out there Making load centers now called Span and they make a panel that actually monitors each individual breaker and you keep track of the consumption on each breaker. There's an app for it that goes to your phone. And you can control each individual breaker or all of them at 1 time. It's a very good panel for home monitoring your electrical usage. They claim that you can even identify high usage items on a circuit and determine what that item is based on a analysis that they have generated. So, for instance, span panel can tell on a circuit For instance, breaker #12 has an excessive use on it, and it can measure somehow the usage and compare to charts they have, For instance, it's a 20 amp plugged in portable heater that has been left on. And it can let you know and you have the ability wherever you are to shut that circuit down via your telephone. Anyway, it's a very nice panel. I plan on using it some day, It's called Span. You guys should check it out.
