My central air quit working recently. Using my energy monitor I was able to see the compressor trying to start every few minutes, which led me to a blown capacitor.
Once I replaced the cap I was also able to document the reduction in the starting load, a big help for my standby generator.
@Howward L, thanks so much for sharing how the Emporia Vue helped you diagnose your issue with the capacitor! This a great example how with the information you gained from using the energy data collated by the Vue save money on a fairly inexpensive issue with your furnace.
