Default display utility voltage?

Unfortunately, those are consumption meters. Rats!
I want to monitor my line voltage, so I don't start
my washer during a brown out.



If that's all you want to do then install a Uninterruptible Power
Supply with an alarm. They seem to have cleaned it up now, but
when I first put in my UPS it beeped several times a week for power
fluctuations that didn't bother lights, or even the TV.

If brownouts are common I'd be more worried about my computers than my
washing machine.
