Abstract
A device for monitoring power consumption includes a measuring unit, a wireless communication unit, and a shell unit. The measuring unit is for obtaining a set of current parameters of an electricity-consuming apparatus, and is operable to obtain power consumption information with reference to the set of current parameters. The wireless communication unit is operable to transmit the power consumption information. The shell unit includes a shell body and a set of connection ports. The shell body is formed with at least one opening. The set of connection ports is disposed at the at least one opening. The set of current measuring components is coupled to a processor via the set of connection ports, and is exposed from the shell body.
Claims8
