clip on meters

[JACKC]

office block with three phase dis board supplying 3 single phase dis boards on 4 floors. Owner wants each single phase board to have own meter for splitting bills fairly with new occupants. Does anyone know of a supplier who can supply clip on meters as new occupiers do not want to interupt supply due to nature of business.
Many thanks in anticipation.

office block - i'm guessing its server / internet equipment they need to keep running. If so arrange some UPS's, it'll take you 2 mins to insert the UPS's into the circuit a few days before for a full charge. Even if the servers take 10 mins to reboot, thats only 12 mins. If its going to take you a while to do the job, run an extension lead downstairs for the duration!

At our company, they always let the stores know about any downtime with head office servers, with a date, time and expected downtime. Suggest they do this (unless its a public thing)

"Sorry guy's you had a power cut for a couple of hours last night"

Springs to mind

IT equipment is bound to have its own UPS, surely... only an idiot would run a business-critical system without.

Sorry to confuse, not IT business. Stores medical supplies in fridges etc. Won't let me in after dark so looking for clamp on meters as only option.
Good customer of mine or would tell to shove it

Just had a quick google "electric meters"

They have transformer meters and also have split transformers which would be of interst to you!

Hope they don't get a power cut.

The electricity supply is not guaranteed you know

Fridges should be ok for a while if kept closed shouldn't they?

You could use three "Electrisave" (or similar "energy Monitor"- google) monitors with wired sensors. Suggest they would need to be in a locked cabinet to prevent tampering?

Fit some CT's to the tails, and add the meters in a din rail enclosure.
