Hummm, but the buss is fed by a main and that main is fed by wire that

Not in any power panel that I have seen recently.

OTOH, since he's wondering about the power used
on one circut, many people might suggest
clamping the ammeter on the wire that feeds
that circut. You know, where it comes off the
breaker. I know that sounds crazy, but it might
work anyway.
