Engineer. Inventor. Entrepreneur. These are just a few words that describe our incredible founder, Sam Kagan. It was back in 1975 when it all started – when Sam realized the need for an affordable, easy-to-use AC power meter system and it didn’t stop there!

Sam believed that this industry needed a solid state meter that could communicate data, and provide engineers the ability to make power management decisions, and most engineers in the industry couldn’t agree more. He went out and made that an industry reality. With early DOS software and microprocessor-based meters released as early as 1979, his inventions were, and are incorporated worldwide.

He was known by power meter users for his keen understanding of three-phase power systems. Users would call all day, not just for power meters, but also for questions on anything related to power systems. Sam Kagan helped thousands of users solve energy dilemmas and improve the reliability of their electrical power.
