This ac current sensor used for measuring alternating current, particularly used for whole building consumption or generation.

This split core transformer is particularly suitable for DIY use and it works well with arduino and raspberry pi.

Use this split core current sensor to build your own energy monitor, reducing your power usage, or use it build an over-current protection device for an AC load.
