[Boatanchors] Long-term AC voltage monitor

[D C _Mac_ Macdonald]

That attitude of CON ED is what comes with living in an area where the unions are the supreme law of the land and a non-union person is considered to be totally ignorant and incompetent.  
 
I'm sure glad I don't live in the people's republic of NY any more!

> I have CON ED. I've contacted them about voltage problems. They said I have to hire a licensed electrician to do the monitoring and submit a report. They would not take a technical report from me since I am not licensed as an electrician. I gave up and bought some variacs to run the sensitive equipment. That solution was the most expedient (and probably least expensive!) But I am fortunate that I have test equipment that supports GPIB where I can easily log the output of a HP benchtop volt meter onto my computer. A portable, USB stick, based AC voltage logger seems like a worthwhile project. I wonder if the sellers in China don't have something just like the OP wants.
