In relation to my 'monitoring temperatures > 100c' post. I have decided to get a current transformer to detect when the heater element is on (drawing current). It's a MI20 if that helps. Any tips on how to use it. It will either be hooked up to either a pic or arduino. More likely the latter if I can get 1. I been searching the world wide pages and there seems to be alot of mention of a burden resistor. Is this to limit the current of something like that. Any help o. The matter would be great. Thanks
