AC power data-logger

Equipment, Tools & Supplies Test and Measurement

Hi, I am looking for a device to measure AC power consumption that is software readable. Testing power consumption on every product and want to automate getting the power reading instead of the operator typing it in. Over USB preferable. < 200 Watts, 120V AC.

Thanks for any advice.

@rohahn AC Power data logging is typically done with bulky (size of a cabinet) set of test equipment. While we don’t have anything at that scale, I did find a product you can take a look at which has capabilities of measuring 70 to 300V RMS resolution.I would recommend reading the data sheets to see if this fits what you are looking for: https://www.digikey.com/short/j1cqj9

@rohahn,

Grab this Digital Multimeter with this USB-KIT3 adapter kit:
