how to Save money with an OWL energy monitor. http://www.energymonitorworld.com The OWL Micro energy monitor CM130 is a wireless energy monitor which shows you how much electricity you are using at any time and how much it is costing. It can help you to save money off your electricity bill by providing up to the second information on the amount of electricity you are using in pounds and pence so that you can see the financial gain of turning off electrical devices at home.
Whether it's turning off at the plug rather than just using standby or simply turning off a light, OWL Micro energy monitor shows you how changing your behaviour can save you money and so help the environment. It is easy to install, easy to read and easy to use. Monitor your electricity & see which appliances use the most electricity. http://www.energymonitorworld.com
The Owl Micro Wireless energy Monitor tells you how much electricity that you're using, and how much the cost of the electricity is. You can also measure how much cost per day, week or month by using the reset button.

The owl energy monitor cm130 uses current transformer sensing technology to detect and monitor a tiny magnetic field around your
Household electricity power cable. It measures the current (Amps) being used and, by reference to the system voltage, works out the amount of power being used and the cost. It then transmits this information from the Transmitter wirelessly to the Display on a radio frequency of 433MHz, from up to 30 metres (100 feet) away (unbroken transmission).
The purpose of the product (ad an energy monitor) is primarily as an educational device to aid understanding of the cost of operating electrical appliances in the home. It is not intended for the Owl Micro Wireless Energy Monitor to replace your accurate electricity revenue meter.

Most UK household electricity supplies use single-phase, but some use three phase. In single-phase supplies, the current flows to and from your household appliances using a neutral and power line. The neutral line has a voltage close to zero while the power line carries a fluctuating voltage or phase. The difference between these two lines makes the current flow through your appliances & is where the energy monitor measure the flow of electricity.
In three phase supplies, current flows to and from a device through a group of three lines - each one carrying a fluctuating voltage or phase. For
3 phase supplies our Wireless Electricity Monitor is required with a sensor connected to each of the three phase lines.

The owl Micro Wireless Energy Monitor has a fixed voltage - 230V and used with the monitoring of current by the sensor clip enables a calculation of KWH. Generally the device is accurate within 10%. The Owl Micro Wireless Energy Monitor is not designed to replace homes electricity meter - they are aimed to provide a very visual and accessible way for users to see the impact of different devices and usage patterns around the home as I did with my kitchen lighting. This we hope will help informing users to adopt more beneficial consumption habits, reduce their costs and reduce their carbon emissions.
The Owl Micro Wireless Energy Monitor CM130 has the ability to help you
