Good Day.
My objective is to build a single phase AC power data logger that can be used to measure power consumption from wall plugs in your typical home ( 240V AC in SA )
As a basis I will require some sort of AC Current measurement and for this I want to know if its possible to use a current transformer like RS Current Transformer for AC?
In essence I am looking for a cheap way to measure AC current and thus Power.
In terms of accuracy of measurements I was thinking as long as it falls in the +-10% margin i'll be happy.
Thanks in advance,
