Installing a mid-range power meter in a Roadtrek Popular 190 and doing some load testing of the appliances. This is not necessarily a DIY job so I just go over the high level points on how I did it. If you were to buy this meter new it would be very expensive but there are much cheaper options on the market. You will want a 30 amp current transformer if you have a 30 amp cord like I do. Power Measurement

The kW value doesn't look right, I will probably have to go into the meter framework and change how it is calculated.
