Monitoring AC line voltage/current with Fieldpoint

I would like to monitor a 220VAC line (voltage and current up to 100A) using my existing fieldpoint system. What is the best way to do this?

You will need an external CT & VT (current transformer and voltage transformer) that step the voltages/currents down to a reading that the FieldPoint system can handle. Some CT/VT transformers offer built in circuitry to provide an RMS output, which would be preferred since current FieldPoint modules are not designed for AC measurements.
