The modern digital utility meters have extensive monitoring for power 
quality. We have been using meters from EDMI[1] that can report and 
record voltage, current, power factor, voltage and current waveforms, 
harmonics, demand profiles and many other things.

The meters have serial interfaces and are fairly easy to connect up for 
remote access.
