A device and method are provided for monitoring voltage and current in a continuous conductor. A current sensor is configured to sense current in the continuous conductor. A voltage sense conductor is provided and a guided path is configured to bring the voltage sense conductor into contact with the continuous conductor at a pre-determined orientation. A communication interface is configured to receive information about a common reference voltage from a source, the source being external to the device. A voltage measuring circuit is configured to estimate voltage between a voltage sensed by the voltage sense conductor and the common reference voltage using the information about the common reference voltage.

Energy monitoring device

An aspect of the present disclosure relates to an electrical receptacle configured to receive a plug having two or more prongs and capable of being connected to an associated load. The electrical receptacle may include a housing and a housing cover mounted on the housing including apertures for receiving at least one of the prongs. In addition, the receptacle may include at least two electrical contacts for engaging the prongs positioned in the housing, a magnetic current sensor defining an opening, wherein the magnetic current sensor opening is operatively coupled to an opening defined by at least one of the apertures. Wherein when one of the prongs is inserted through one of the apertures, the prong extends through the magnetic current sensor and engages at least one of said electrical contacts.
