Hello,

My customer wants to put a small 625 sq. ft. office space on its own 208-volt, 100-amp, 3-phase electrical panel and wants me to include a meter for him to monitor the power usage in the space. Can someone recommend a device for this purpose?

I hope everyone has a safe and prosperous new year.

EMON DEMON I think is the Cutler Hammer. Square D has the Powerlogic series.
 
You should have no problem getting a used PoCo meter for $50; the RV park trade mags are filled with ads for them. Then just instal a meter base- another $40.
 
You won't know until you look ... but I have salvaged two over the years.

The same site also had several single phase meters I was able to salvage. While the building had 3-phase service, some of the loads metered were only single phase, and that's where these were used.

I have been looking for a rv park magazine unsuccessfully. Would you recommend a site for me?

Thanks,
