Hi All

I am looking to monitor and report on power consumption met PDU port

I currently have APC PDU;s installed, can the AP8953 be used for this?

Power consumption can be had by choosing a metered or metered by outlet PDU. Comes down to how granular and the need to manage your energy consumption either globally or per outlet. The benefits of metered per outlet allows precise load shedding and staged start / shutdown to allow key systems to complete their POST.
