the  amp meters that I posted will measure any power that goes through the coach , from very low watts to very high amps on everything . I put 1 on each 120 volt line , I have a 50 amp system . If you have a 30 amp system you only need 1 meter

Right.  It is for simple plug-in, but it shows volts, amps, watts (in case you don't want to figure it yourself), cycles, and Kwatt/hours.  Very handy, I've found.

Quote from: buswarrior on October 10, 2019, 05:17:21 PM... For instance, plug your house refrigerator into it for several days to get some real measurements of power used in your operation.

And it has a feature to record and show a running tally of the Kwatt/hours being used.  You can "zero" it, as BW says, and then see how much power you use in a day, or two, or a week, etc.

But it's not a clamp-meter.  I think everyone with a bus conversion needs both (unless you're just going to drive it into a shop and pay for everything to be done.)
