Energy vs Time logging

Andrea B. · 2009-01-14 20:34:01

Hoping somebody may know of an off-shelf solution for logging energy usage against time. It's a 3p 400v 90Kw heating unit and want to optimise usage. Have come across a few expensive units offering too many bellsandwhistles (harmonics etc) as opposed to my basic req's. All help appreciated.

Why not just rent one from a switchgear contractor, many of them rent VIP meters

I was quoted €500 p/w for a 3P data logger... there's cash to be made in that...
Could it have been by BMC?
