Nov 25, 2022 at 22:58 comment added Andy aka @x_arrange you don't need to add power factor measurements to compute power with the methods I've shown and described and linked. Power factor is a red herring for real practical power measurement. Nobody uses it because it just does not work unless you have perfect balanced sinewaves (amplitude and phase) and perfectly linear loads. Forget it as an option to help you with power measurement.
Nov 25, 2022 at 22:26 comment added x_arrange From what I understand so far typical apartment's load can not ever be balanced because you can plug anything into any wall socket. So even voltage may remain the same on all threee lines the currents differ completely. I guess my choice would be three-wattmeters. And I'll also try to add power factor measure to each of them
