FAQs

In trial tests for the PowerCost Monitor™, many people have enjoyed real savings on their electricity bills. There are a number of questions which interested consumers have asked us about the PowerCost Monitor™. For your convenience we've listed the most frequently asked questions below.
 
 

What is the PowerCost Monitor™?

a. What it does:
The PowerCost Monitor™ is a real-time direct feedback display device for domestic energy consumers. It will tell you at a glance how much electricity your home is currently using and your home's total electricity used in dollars and cents and in kilowatt hours.

For instance, as you turn on or off electrical appliances, you will be able to see the adjustment right away on the clock-sized display which would be located inside your home.

The PowerCost Monitor™ shows only your home's electricity usage in real-time. Ultimately, it is up to you to use this information to reduce your electric bill.

b. How it works:

The PowerCost Monitor™ consists of two components - a small display (which you can place anywhere inside your home) and a sensor unit (which you attach to your electricity meter).

The display unit, located inside the home, receives a wireless signal from the sensor unit which is attached to the outside of your electricity meter. The sensor unit can be easily installed by the homeowner. The sensor unit transmits your meter information to the in-home display unit where your electricity information is displayed in kilowatt hours and dollars and cents.

c. Is the PowerCost Monitor™ a utility meter?

No, the PowerCost Monitor™ is not a utility meter. The PowerCost Monitor™ simply displays your electricity usage in dollars and cents and kilowatt-hours. It is not a utility meter and is not intended for billing purposes. Data displayed on the PowerCost Monitor™ is provided for informational purposes only. Owing to timing of meter reads by your utility and combinations of flat rate charges and consumption-based charges, the "Total" readings on your display will not exactly match what you see on your electric bill.

 

My utility uses a two-tiered rate structure. Can I program the PowerCost Monitor™ with two rates?

Yes the PowerCost Monitor™ will accommodate two-tiered rate structures. Instructions on how to program your unit with tiered rates are included in the Quick Start Guide of your PowerCost Monitor™ package.

 

 

I have a digital meter. Will the PowerCost Monitor™ work on a digital meter?

Yes,  the PowerCost Monitor™  can work on digital meters.

 

 

Do I need an electrician to install the PowerCost Monitor™?

No. The PowerCost Monitor™ does not require an electrician for installation. The PowerCost Monitor™ has been designed so that it is easy for you to install onto your electric meter.

 

 

I am with a utility company and am wondering who to contact about purchasing a PowerCost Monitor™?
