Home Energy Monitoring in Hamilton
Monitor whole-home consumption or individual circuits to understand where electricity is actually being used.
What this could look like at home
Find out the pool pump's been running an hour a day longer than it needs to. Spot the heater left on in the sleepout. See your solar actually covering the hot water cylinder.
A homeowner looks at their energy monitor one evening and can see the hot water cylinder, the heat pump, the pool pump and the oven as separate lines. The pool pump stands out immediately: it has been running two hours longer each day than it needs to.
Nothing has been replaced to find this. The monitoring sits in the switchboard, watching the circuits that were already there. A small schedule change ends the waste from that day onward.

How it works
A straightforward process
We look at what you already have
We assess the existing equipment and electrical installation, and check what is compatible.
We work out what is worth automating
We work out the right level of monitoring for your home: whole-house, or circuit by circuit for the big items like hot water, heating, pool and EV charging.
We install and set it up
2E Electrical installs suitable controls, configures them and shows you how everything works. Normal switches and manual controls keep working alongside the automation.
Already live there? That's fine.
Monitoring is almost always possible in an existing home. Sensors sit in the switchboard and watch the circuits you already have.
