Devices with power monitoring support

Open Limeth opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Hello! I'd like to buy a UPS with power monitoring (in watts on the output sockets), but I can't figure out which ones support this feature. I was hoping it would be documented somewhere, but I'm not having much luck. In particular, I'm currently looking at the Eaton 5E900UF, but wasn't able to deduce from its spec sheet much of anything about the supported features in the USB communications. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Edit: Not sure how good the data is. The UPS is plugged into a metering device. It currently tells me a power of 86 watt, a value I can't find in the data available from the UPS.
