A system and method are provided for monitoring and/or controlling a
sterilization system. Briefly described, in architecture, the system can
be implemented as follows. A current transformer is operatively
associated with a source of power for a radiation source. A power meter
is operatively associated with the source of power. The power meter is
also operatively associated with the current transformer. The power meter
is designed to monitor the source of power to confirm the radiation
source provides a desired dosage.
