The price of electricity is a cause for concern for us. For this reason, we increasingly want to have full control over the consumption of this important medium. An electricity meter is a great way to constantly monitor your home budget. Check what types of meters there are and when it is worth using them. We also indicate the best models of electricity consumption monitors.

When is it worth measuring electricity consumption?
The fundamental question is when an electricity meter is actually useful. The main measuring device is usually located in the distribution box, which also houses the main connection to the power grid. This monitor is used by the electricity supplier to issue a bill or compare forecasts to actual consumption. However, the property owner also has access to the device and can read how much electricity he has consumed at any time.
In many cases, it is worth using an additional electricity meter.
- In two-story houses, the ground floor is most often inhabited by the older generation, while young parents with children use the rooms upstairs. Sharing bills in this case can be problematic. However, installing an electricity meter before the main power line goes upstairs will allow you to precisely determine who should contribute how much to the bill.
- To better control electricity consumption in different areas, you can separate key circuits and place small electricity consumption monitors in them. This simple solution will allow us to quickly determine how much current it will consume
eras while working in the garden or in the workshop. - Electricity meters measure not only output energy
used, but also produced. You have a photovoltaic installation and you want to keep it up to date
What do you need to know, how much electricity goes to your home and how much do you feed into the grid? All you need is to install the appropriate meter. - Measuring electricity consumption by devices operating continuously (for example, garden lamps that are on all night long) allows you to respond very quickly to failures and problems - they are visible due to a sudden increase in the amount of electricity used.
Installing and using electricity meters is very simple. This is why they are often in
used by many people in their properties and gardens. However, it turns out that there are many types of electricity meters. So which one is right?
The best models of electricity monitors
To help you choose the optimal device, we present a list of the best and most typical home solutions. Each of the meters mentioned is available in our wholesaler!
OWE-1 electricity meter: a simple and quick way to measure
Most often, there is no need to read a lot of information - all that matters is how much current a given circuit uses. For such measurements, you can use the single-phase energy consumption meter OWE-1 , which can be easily installed in the distribution box. It is also a cheap and failure-free solution, and reading the values is made easier by the LCD display.
Modbus RTU electricity meter for more accurate measurements 
Are you taking advantage of the dual-tariff offer? It is worth knowing how much electricity you used in the lower price and how much in the more expensive one. Therefore, you should install a dual-tariff three-phase Modbus RTU electricity meter . Thanks to it, you will get more important information and it will be easier to analyze how to save on electricity.
ENERGY 3 FOX F&F electricity meter - for convenience
The electricity meter is most often placed in the distribution box. Its location may cause some difficulties when reading the current values. Unless you have a three-phase Wi-Fi energy consumption monitor ENERGY 3 FOX F&F , which can connect via the network to your computer or phone to indicate the current level of electricity consumption.
LE-02d CT electricity meter for special tasks
Electricity meter LE-02d CT 
It is used to measure three-phase current, but its greatest advantage is the programmable gear ratio. This type of solutions are used in current transformers. It allows you to measure the actual power consumption of a given circuit.
KWH IEM3110 not only for industry
Each model of power consumption monitor has certain maximum operating parameters. The IEM3110 KWH meter is distinguished by the ability to work under a very heavy load, up to 63 A, with a high accuracy class B. It is appreciated in production halls, but it will also work well in a home workshop.
