Make sure u use that surge protector with well equipped ground connection. U probably know that already.

That is one sexy multiplug! :3
Belkin multiplugs are really good, i use this one https://www.amazon.ca/Belkin-BE11223...urge+protector
He's indirectly trying to say that buy from @minitt bhai.
Ami eita anaisi. First e plan chilo kono ekta multiplug e mod koira eita lagaia nibo. Ekhon thik korsi eita UPS er front panel kaita permanently bosaia dibo.
Awesome find! But pichhoner diagram ta ektu bujhiye diben?
Kemne mod kore lagabo? Or engineer mistrike korte dile bujhe jabe (jodio DIY korar icchha ase). Ar ground connection er ki hobe? sathe dewa cable ta ki jothesto hobe? I can sacrifice a plug in my room for this setup.
the is no point in importing a surge protector from CA since its 110v here in ca the short circuit mechanism will trigger or movs will short instantly.

eita diya surge protection kemne hoi. It looks like a amp meter.

Eitar sathe ekta Current Transformer thake, chobir oi ring type jinish ta. Power cord er line ar neutral tar duita alada koira, tar je kono ekta ei CT er ring er vitor dia pass korte hoy. Abar duita ek sathe pass korle hobe na, so multiplug er pura cord eitar vitor dia pass koira dile hobe na. So, eita thikmoto place korar pore CT er je duita tar ase oita pic er bam diker duita conneciton e lagaia dite hobe. Ei CT er output theika ei device current measure korbe. Then, multiplug er Line ar Neutral theika aro duita tar aina direct dan diker duita terminal e lagia dite hobe. Ei duita dia 220v power asbe, device power korar jonno plus voltage measure korar jonno.
Ei CT wala model er subidha hoilo, load device e current directly main line theika jay, ei meter er vitor dia jay na. Ei meter er CT ta just load er main power cable e lagaia dite hoy. Technically eita ke non invasive current sensor bola jay. Main benefit, onek onek besi current measure kora jay. Ei particular model up to 100amp (22kW @220v) supported. Chaile eita basar main line e lagaia dia pura basar electric bill check kora jay.
Abar, same brand er arekta model ase, PZEM-021. Oitate CT nai. Oitar just input ar output line. Plug theika input line e power asbe, then output line e load device lagaia deoa jabe. Oita use kora easy, but only 20 amp current limit.
It's an alternative to the Kill-A-Watt meter Sybaris Caesar was talking about. I was not talking about surge protector. I should have mentioned off topic on that post.
I have been looking for similar coil based amp meter that can be used with dc voltage but couldn't find one in affordable price.pls let me know if u notice one.
shunt based inline dc amp meter ase online a onek and those are dirt cheap but they induce resistance and hence cause voltage drop across the shunt. Coil amp meter er Ei issue nai.

PZEM-021 modelta jeitar sathe Current Transformer nai (so 20A max vs 100A) seitar shunt resistance naki 0.1Ω according to this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rqJuSe...ient=mv-google. So reading e kototuku difference hobe?
. Volt drop across the shunt depends on current draw and resistance value. Just use I= v/r
U can actually cut the shunt in the middle to tune voltage drop. Cutting it in the middle will increase resistance. It's better to buy the shunt and lcd panel or meter together so that you don't have to do the guess work. Btw shunt is not a ideal solution for computers if thats where u intend to use them.

Current transformer meters are AC only because current transformer only works with AC. To measure DC without voltage drop you'll need a Hall-Effect current sensor. I haven't found any ready made meter solution with Hall-Effect current sensors, but it is really easy to interface a hall sensor with a microcontroller. The sensors are cheap too (example).
the mc needs to do the math to show reading right? Since the acs sensor only puts out voltage in relation to the magnetic field that are created from current flow. It's actually quite doable even for a amature like myself. Might put together a couple of these for each PSU rail with dedicated small led panel. Will look so techy.
