Ol' Bab here -I was an EE.
"outside the frequency range" - I was going to say that circuit
breakers trip on the magnetic effect of the passed current, not the true
RMS, and also ignore the phase angle with respect to the voltage. Need
both for accurate power.
ALSO they are very inaccurate, because of need to be cheap cheap cheap.
Even if you calibrate one, it won't hold vs time, temperature.

Nice idea in principle, but if the power actually supplied lies
outside the frequency range of the measuring equipment, then this
won't work.
Come to think of it, are there any EE's on this list except for Duncan
and myself?

No knowledge of the waveform would be required if a circuit
breaker were used which trips if more power is getting
in than Rossi claims.
