If you're looking to monitor your usage of power then the connection is at the feed cables from your leisure batteries.

If you are monitoring your solar power output then it's on the feed cable from your solar panel to regulator.
This monitor is a simple ampmeter that measures current drain/feed.
Works really well and is accurate as I've crossed checked it with a flux clamp meter to establish how accurate it is.

I've mine on the feed cables from the battery to monitor battery usage, my solar regulator has its own monitor that utilises an RJ45 plug to the regulator to monitor solar output to both batteries as its a dual regulator.
