  • Publication number: 20240364105
    Abstract: A power monitoring device is configured to monitor the aspects of power being supplied to an RV at an RV park. The power monitoring device communicates wirelessly to a remote device of a user to provide information about the power supplied by the park. The user can set limits of various power aspects. If aspects of the power supplied are out of compliance with the limits a notification of such may be delivered to the user's remote device.
