The Service
What Is Home Energy Monitoring Systems?
Home energy monitoring covers installing a system that measures your electricity use — whole-home and, with circuit-level monitors, individual circuits — and shows it in an app so you can see where power goes.
Some monitors clamp onto the supply at the consumer unit (whole-home), while circuit-level monitors fit inside the consumer unit to show per-circuit use. With solar, they can also show generation and self-consumption.

Tell us about itWhat's Included
What's Typically Involved
- Assessment of your consumer unit and monitoring goals
- Installation of whole-home or circuit-level sensors
- Connection to your network (Wi-Fi or hub)
- App set-up and configuration
- Guidance on reading and using the data
Why It Matters
Why Professional Electrical Work Matters
You can't manage what you can't see. An energy monitor turns a single monthly bill into clear, real-time information about what's using power — the first step to cutting waste.
For homes with solar or batteries, monitoring shows how much you generate, use and export, helping you maximise self-consumption rather than exporting for a low rate.
Costs & Pricing
Costs & What Affects Pricing
Pricing for electrical work depends on the job. Here are the factors that typically affect the cost of this service.
- Whole-home vs circuit-level monitoring
- The number of circuits monitored
- Whether a hub or gateway is needed
- Whether solar/battery integration is included
- The brand and app features
A simple whole-home clamp monitor is inexpensive; circuit-level monitoring inside the consumer unit costs more. Tell us what you want to see.
