Just to be pedantic, you could have a current meter where the clamp/hall sensor is internal and not clamped on the power cord.

That's what I'm say, but I've never ever seen one. I would love to buy one with a current clamp integrated, as it would save me from needing to fab a box and build something, but I don't know of any that exist today.
