Description
The Tinytag Energy TGE-0003 is a compact and precise energy logger designed for indoor monitoring of voltage, current, and power. It can measure AC currents up to 2,000 A RMS with momentary peak surges up to twice the rated range, and voltage from 200–253 V AC at a nominal 50/60 Hz frequency. The device provides high-resolution readings with 0.1 A for current, 0.1 V for voltage, and 0.1 or 0.01 kW for power, depending on the load. Accuracy is rated at 1% ±0.5 A for current (above 10 A), 0.5% for voltage, and 2% for power, with a power factor error of less than 0.02 (above 1 kW). Its temperature stability ensures 0.1% accuracy per °C change, while sampling occurs in bursts of 5 kHz every 2 seconds (or every 5 seconds on battery).
The TGE-0003 is built for ease of use and reliability, featuring non-invasive measurement via a small tear-drop coil and a simple handheld design weighing 600 g with batteries. It records data for up to six weeks at a default 5-minute logging interval, powered by 4 AA alkaline batteries, or via mains power when available. The logger’s compact size (195 × 102 × 50 mm) and features such as an attachment magnet allow safe, quick installation without a computer. Its USB connection makes data transfer simple, enabling convenient monitoring of electrical energy usage with minimal setup.
