I use KWH meters on my apartments to keep track of tenents electric usage. I have one unit that is not on a seperate sub-panel. Is it possible to connect a CT on each of the 8 circuits used for the one tenent space and wire all these Current Tranformers in series for each phase? This should give me a total watt hour usage when wired to my meter, correct?

thanks, Brad
