Style: Monitor with 16 50A Sensors
I purchased this to have an idea about the energy use in our home. I had considered other brands of Energy Monitors but after purchasing the Smart EV Charger by Emporia I decided to go with their product. Installation was not difficult, but it was slightly time consuming (took me around 2 hours). It does require shutting OFF your main breaker, this removes electrical power to all of your circuit breakers, BUT IT DOES NOT REMOVE ALL POWER FROM THE PANEL! The power from the meter is still present up to that main power breaker. My panel is a 200AMP panel with a solar tie in on the main lines above the main breaker. Wanting to monitor my solar generation as well required that I use TWO of the 50A circuit monitors (make sure you designate the circuit type as SOLAR). This left me with only 14 circuits to monitor. I choose to monitor my largest loads (oven, A/C, well pump, dryer, refrigerator, etc...). Now while some of my circuits are NOT monitored specifically, the system still calculated TOTAL use and if you have Solar configured properly it will give you your Net Use as well. Placing the sensors on the appropriate circuits is rather simple, just make sure the sensor is oriented properly (there's an arrow that points to the breaker. Attaching the 200AMP sensors to the main lines and the 50AMP sensors to the Solar are the most stressful as lethal high voltage is present . ( I highly recommend that you purchase electrical safety gloves.) You also need to connect the "hub" to power. For my panel set up I needed to attach it to two adjacent breakers and the other two to the neutral bar. They prefer you connect to two EMPTY breakers, but I have NONE. The alternative is to tap in to the loads on two adjacent breakers (they even give you two small pieces of solid core wire for this purpose. This means you need to remove the wire from the breaker, insert the small wire into the breaker and re-tighten it, then connect the small wire, the wire you removed from the breaker and the wire leading to the "hub"... you can use a wire nut (provided in kit) or I opted to use a lever lock nut (much easier). You also need to knockout a hole for the wifi antenna. Now my panel is VERY crowded to begin with and the sensors are a little bulky, it took some finessing to be able to get the panel cover on again. Energize the panel to start the system setup ( note- if you have solar, shut the solar system down util setup is complete). Now it is important to know that NO INSTRUCTIONS ARE INCLUDED. The installation is ALL APP GUIDED, so you need to have the app downloaded prior to starting. One disappointing thing I found in their setup is that it DOES NOT ADDRESS SOLAR at all. Having researched the product prior to purchase I had an idea of HOW it was incorporated into the system. The app offers LIVE CHAT if you need help, but this is evidently limited as no one was available on a Saturday morning when I tried to use it. But I did find the answer to my question on their website. PRO-TIP: Plan out which circuits you plan to monitor before starting. WRITE THEM DOWN. Make sure you know what monitor is connect to which breaker and to which number on the "hub". Also, with the panel power off you will have NO LIGHTS, have an alternative lighting ready. So far I have found the monitoring system very useful and informative. It is pretty user friendly though there is room for improvement. This is definitely an easy project for a DIYer who is comfortable working within an electrical power panel. IF YOU ARE NOT COMFORTABLE HIGHER AN ELECTRICIAN. Overall, I Highly Recommend! ... show more

    • Not perfect but pretty good
Style: Monitor with 16 50A Sensors
Review Image by Nick Nack Nick Nack
I’ve been wanting to be able to monitor my home’s electrical usage for some time now, not just from a standpoint of trying to minimize our electricity bills but also from a standpoint of situational awareness and equipment health status. I’d like to know if my well pump is running more than usual, if my oven has been left on, or if my heat pump is having a harder time starting up than it usually does. And, with a little effort, Emporia lets me set notifications for each of those things. Emporia tells me that the so-called “50A” sensors actually saturate at 75A, and will not be damaged if you go beyond that—they’ll simply fail to report any additional current. It makes sense that they’ve allowed some margin above the nominal value—a 50A breaker might easily let you draw 100A for several seconds without tripping. But that’s good to know if, like me, you have a 60A emergency heat circuit in your air handler that you want to monitor. There are alternatives out there. The most widely known one is probably Sense (also sold as Wiser Energy), which tries to infer based on only sensing your main lines what loads are running. That’s a neat idea, and certainly easier to install because of so many fewer sensors, but I can’t say I really trust their computer to be able to tell the difference between all the various loads in a house just from looking at the combined draw. Plus, Sense costs twice as much as Emporia—and I needed two monitors because I have two completely separate panels in my house (neither is a subpanel of the other), so I was doubly sensitive to price. Another interesting option, though, is called IotaWatt. Its price tag is comparable to Sense, but like the Emporia it relies on individual circuit sensors rather than guesswork (although you only get 14 sensors, including the mains). And the IotaWatt is open source, so you don’t have to rely on a company like Emporia to keep supporting the software ecosystem in the future (on the flip side, though, you’re almost certainly looking at having to fiddle more with the software, and I’d expect it to be a lot harder to contrive a way of looking at the data when you’re not at home on your local network). Another interesting option, although it won’t work for most people, is the Emporia “Vue Utility Connect wireless energy monitor.” If you happen to be in one of the relatively few markets using the appropriate Zigbee-connected smart meter, that cheap little device can tell you your total power draw by simply asking your existing smart meter what’s happening. Not as informative as being able to monitor 16 individual circuits, but not bad for the price tag and ease of installation. I also like how the Emporia ecosystem includes smart plugs to monitor individual devices. I bought some of those also because I wanted to be able to schedule the on and off time of certain equipment, and being able to monitor the power draw of that specific service is handy. You can nest the device to put it under the appropriate circuit in the app. If you’re getting the 16-branch-sensor version like I did, there’s no getting around the fact that it’s going to turn the inside of your breaker box into a rat’s nest. I don’t care for that, but I don’t have any better ideas. The Sense approach of only monitoring the mains is the only way around it that I can see, and as I said I don’t really trust that. The app feels a little dodgy. Sometimes the branch circuits don’t show up unless I fiddle with the time scale. Changing the name of a circuit doesn’t update until you leave the menu, so it can get confusing if you’re renaming several at once. And I ended up remaking all of them because when I finished typing them all in the first time it suggested I take a picture of the inside of my breaker box—and navigating from the Emporia app to my camera seemed to abort the entire setup process. It also failed to update firmware and said it would do it overnight instead. And even after it’s all set up, the high resolution data by the second—which is the only glimpse into how hard a motor is starting—disappears quickly (3 hours), in many cases preventing you from comparing to previous runs of that equipment if you haven’t explicitly gone to the effort of saving it. I would’ve appreciated emporia saving the peak draw from each circuit over the last day, week, and month. So on the whole I’m not feeling like it’s a very polished experience. The one second sample rate frequently misses startup spikes. If you’re really only concerned with total energy usage, that might not matter, but if you have an interest in how hard a motor is starting then that’s a bit disappointing. The one-second data is also only saved for three hours, which isn’t a lot of time. I wish they would save the peak consumption per hour and per day, ideally from a quick enough sample to catch startup peaks reliably. I’d like to be able to set a notification for power draw between two bounds rather than just above or below a threshold. If I want to recognize a hard start of my air handler but not confuse emergency heat with a hard start, I need that kind of functionality. If I’m understanding things correctly, setting the time scale to minute or hour or day shows me how much energy has been consumed so far during this minute or hour or day (etc) even if it just started seconds ago. I don’t see a way to view my usage over the last rolling 24 hours, or 60 minutes, or 60 seconds, which makes it hard to understand how much energy I’m using right now as opposed to one unit of time ago. About a week after installing the sensors, I accidentally hit the breaker to my heat pump while turning on another breaker that was new and quite stiff. The next morning, I got a bunch of notifications that I had configured to alert me when the system was in emergency (resistive) heat mode. I found my error with a quick investigation and remedied it before a lot of energy was wasted. In all, it could be better but I like it. ... show more

    • Very good and immediately useful, even in a historically old home
Style: Monitor with 16 50A Sensors
Sorry for any typos or grammatical errors, this was voice transcribed. I'm very happy with this product.My house is built in 1740 and our panel is old and our electrical wiring is old. Finally, though, I have a real answers and I can see in real time when I turn off my individual switches or smart devices. Within one day I identified the only incandescent bulbs in my house left over from the previous owner, which are always left on and were simple fix to improve and reduce their energy consumption. The one thing I had trouble with was fitting the box inside of the panel, but I had to work around where the box kind of sits outside of the panel and we'll fix it next year when we upgrade. I could have spent countless hours fritting and fretting about different appliances in the house, but now I have real information and I can make real actions based on actual usage. The feature of giving you the "balance" of your power consumption, meaning all the power that's not accounted for in the circuits, allows me to identify power usage in circuits that I'm not actively monitoring, which I think is a fantastic feature. My wife is very happy that I have stories to tell and not just questions to ask. For the money this is a better product than the sense product which I saw in shark tank. I don't think you'll be disappointed, even in my old panel with some old wiring this was a pretty easy install. I recommend getting some of these electrician gloves that are rated for 12,000 volts ac and you will do it safely, unless you tell an electrician to do it for you.. the gloves were another 20$ and allowed me to install it safely. ... show more
