Totally understand a clamp meter is not ideal as the ships load will vary We put the suspect meter on test today in the workshop with the following results. 10.8amps load on each phase,used a hydraulic power pack as a load. 240v average phase to neutral and 440v phase to phase average...

Hello, Not strictly a DIY question but hoping you can help, basically I am after the formulae for working out kilowatt hours for a 3 phase load. Bit of background, we have a vessel that plugs onto a 3 phase socket and on average uses 28 units for 14.5hrs, but if he plugs into another...
