      I have an interlock installed that transfers over manually to a portable generator. Assume the breaker feeding Emporia Vue 2 energy is always on (whether on generator or off it).

      Since Emporia Vue is hooked onto the utility mains with 2 clamps, is there any way to use Emporia as a power-back alarm / status check? With or without notifications, just so I can tell when the power is back on.

      Duplicate question – see below.  Sorry, this is not possible with the Emporia Vue 2 hardware.  If your main breaker is off (due to generator safety interlock), there is no current flow in the Vue2 mains clamps so it cannot detect when grid power is restored.  Need an electrical field sense device to do this.
