Arduino Energy Shield
XBEE + RTC + ADE7753 (power calculation SPI or pulse comunication) + 1 Clamp input + 1 Transformer input. The current is mesured with a non-invasive AC external current sensor and the voltage with an external 12V adaptor.
SEG meter
XBEE + 6 Clamp input + 1 Transformer input The current is mesured with a non-invasive AC external current sensor and the voltage with an external 12V adaptor.
CuteDigi Smart Outlet LCD Shield
ACS712 (current mesuring) + 16A TRIAC (switch) + LCD + 2 buttons interface The current is mesured with an invasive IC (ACS712). No voltage measuring?
