How is it measuring 220v when it only has one inductive pickup? Is it just seeing one leg and just doubling the amp value?

Wendys used to have a system that monitored power usage into the main disconnect panel. Every remodel I found the inductors left in the panels because whoever took them out just snipped the wires and left them in. They ditched the system because yes it was neat to have that info but it was just an expense and had no energy saving value.
I wish I would have saved those inductive pickups. Might have come in handy... They had them on every breaker feeding each panel. 150 to 300 amp panels usually and normally 3 per store on the old ones.
