I just moved into a new home over the winter, and the electrical panel is a mess. I am having it upgraded from 200amps to 400amps (need to have some dedicated circuits for car charger, and a mini-datacenter in the basement lol).
While doing this, I would love to install power monitors at the panel to be able to track usage, see power hogs, and etc… Some day in the next year or two I’ll probably install Solar, so debating if it’s worth it now, or wait till I get the solar installed and use that for the power management/visibility.
Hoping that someone will have some experience in this and share the pros/cons, gotchas and what worked well for them
thanks
