Is it possible to use Modbus RTU directlly on the pins of an ESP32? Using arduino framework on VSC. Or should I use a MAX485? For measuring miliamp current in a 240Vac system can I use ACS712? Is there other option? Thanks, Bruno

Hello, you can choose: ACS70331 Here is link to it : https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/allegro-microsystems-llc/ACS70331EESATR-2P5U3/620-1890-1-ND/8120690 These sensor have smaller noise (8ma for 1MHz band), and bigger sensibility. For AC current you have to average a half of period (for sinus curve). For first question - yes using a Max485 is simpler(and in my opinion better) option. Regards

I will have to hand soldering the PCB so i will look to other type of Package / Case.
