Have bought the phase meter, because I have my washing machine in the basement and the billing of electricity consumption through a joint account of all the house goes. But since I use the washing machine, I needed a counter to add at the end of the value in my billing and bill on the House Administration. The counter is very easy for an electrician to connect as a normal phase meter maintenance, which is installed in every household. For mounting, three eyelets on the meter so that it securely holds well. The lid has a hole on the screw so that you could then seal it or, secure it with a wire, so that children can not just open it. I have aligned him with the spirit level and doweled with three screws to the wall. Keeps bombproof and counts the power consumption manually without the need batteries or the like. I would buy it again. FBA, as always, good and very fast.
