Sample consumption and costs for typical appliances (using an electricity rate of 8 cents per kilowatt hour)
Technical specifications
> 120 VAC, 60 Hz, 15 amps continuous
> * Electronics handle 100-277v, 50/60 Hz, 20 amps. Universal outlet version with country specific
cord sets available for these applications
> True power, RMS voltage, RMS current measured and displayed
> Accuracy: +/- 1.5% + 3 counts, for example 100w load is +/- 1.8 watts
Below 60 watts, amps and power factor accuracy degrades, but wattage is accurate down to 0.5 watts
> USB interface (PRO and ES)
> Ethernet interface (.Net)
> Mains supply voltage fluctuations not to exceed +/- 10% of the nominal voltage
> Input is via 6' electric cord, output is via outlet on top of meter
For UL rating
> Watts up? is intended for use on 20 amp circuits. Per NEC requirements, this is necessary when the
load is above 12 amps.
> Indoor use only
> Pollution Degree 2
> Altitude up to 2000 meters
> Maximum relative humidity 80% for temperatures up to
> Temperature 5˚ C to 40˚ C
31˚ C decreasing linearly to 50% relative humidity at 40 ˚ C
> Installation Category II
