Does anyone know of a simple panel meter setup that I could mount remotely so that a homeowner could monitor the wattage of a portable generator when in use?
The CT's would be mounted in the manual transfer switch or panel.
I have checked Emon Demon but am not looking for anything that sophisticated or expensive.
Thanks

EML-2020 measures only one 240V split phase appliance at once. Will not measure 240V single wire appliances.

What is a "split phase appliance"?

What is a "single wire appliance"?

I don't know how sophisticated/accurate your home owner needs/wants.

How about just one CT, to an ammeter, with a felt pen mark at 100%? A couple of tests with a clamp-on will give you the highest leg. This would be cheap and simple.
