when we've run out of oil.

I keep a close eye on the oil, weekly sight glass reading and
extrapolate when it's likely to run out.

Indeed. We use a Watchman which, despite a few negative comments here,
works rather well.

Same here.

Right. Progress. Pictures of our fuse boxes here :

Looks a bit like our under-stairs cupboard. :-)

Even more progress. Have found the monitor which E.on sent me um, eons
ago. One clamp to go around the main supply cable. Will that be the
thick red cable to the left of the meter, in the bottom picture?

Can you figure out where the supply enters? I guess it then goes to the
meter.

Eon sent us one too, when we were with them. Useful to have on the desk
next to me.

I bought one of these:

in 2009 - very useful for seeing what juice is going through a
particular socket if you want to measure e.g. a fridge/freezer or a
telly. It can give you instantaneous measurements and average over some
period but doesn't store any data.

I have one of these:

Quite handy.
