To be fair I believe this unit's senser just 'clips on' rather then being
inline
I wonder if it reads voltage from the extra 'appliance power meters'
you can attach.

Im considering switching to E.ON if they are giving these away for free...
I havenbt found anything saying this unit supports my 'dule' electric
supply though, I Ibm charged a different for my night time heating
supply (Economy 7) same supply of course it just goes to a different
PDU.
