Welcome to OpenHab! I've been using OpenHabian on a Raspberry PI for over a year and I love it.

Here's a link for steps to install OpenHabian on a Raspberry PI.

I'm not sure if it's the best Zwave stick but I use the Aeotec Z-stick Gen 5. I've been using it for over a year and it works great, I haven't had any problems. Getting my Zwave stuff working was the first thing I did when I started using OpenHab, so I'm a little foggy on the setup steps. I think I referenced this link to setup my Zwave stick with my OpenHabian. I don't remember using a guide to setup the Zwave stick. I'll poke around to see if I can find one.

If you haven't already, I would recommend reading through the Overview section on the OpenHab website before starting to setup the Zwave stick. That will walk you though the main concepts of OpenHab. If you need more help let me know. I would be happy to offer recommendations for different sensors and actuators that have worked well for me.

Yes I would put a current clamp on the wire like this

JANSANE SCT-013-000 100A Non-invasive AC Current Sensor Split-Core Clamp Current Transformer for Arduino Raspberry pi https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07D8SXQ13/

In an application like this

You will need a burden resistor along with the circuit he describes.

If you don't care about the voltage or watthour consumption then you shouldn't need anything else but the current clamp. I personally use esps which can be programmed with the arduino ide. However just find a nice tutorial you feel is complete(if not video above) and use what they use.

You can ultimately program it to text (via email) when some time period passes and current is still being consumed. Or to turn on another relay which can send power to something else like a light or siren etc

I haven't used that, i have a few of these, i can confirm they work well (with a zwave dongle), but no energy monitoring.
