The Global Specialties 1523 precision watt meter is designed to determine the power consumption of equipment operating directly from a standard 120 VAC, 60 Hz outlets. The 1523 features a backlit LCD display for easy viewing of power parameters and can measure up to 2600 watts. In addition to power measurement, the wattmeter measuresTrue RMS AC voltage and RMS current. The 1523 is easy to operate and each measurement function, voltage (V), current (I) or power (W) is selected by a simple pushbutton switch on the front panel. Connect to two different loads where the total load current can be up to 20 A.
