Use a transformer (must be good quality for good accuracy) and resistive divider for voltage sense and a Hall effect current sensor for current sensing. Put the two into the two channels of a sound card and use software to do it.

Or use something like a cheap FM transmitter and receiver (both must be stereo) so a simple resistive divider and a shunt can be used as the wireless link provides the isolation.
