1. Introduzione
The KETOTEK KTEM03 Watt Meter Plug is designed to monitor the energy consumption of household appliances and track electricity costs. This device provides detailed measurements including power (W), energy (kWh), voltage, current, frequency, power factor, electricity cost, minimum and maximum power (W), and cumulative operating time. Its user-friendly interface with five buttons allows for quick access to various parameters.
A key feature of the KTEM03 is its split display design, where the measuring plug is separate from the LCD display, connected by a cable. This allows for flexible placement of the display in various locations, including tight corners, inside cabinets, or near refrigerators, ensuring convenient data reading.
