Hi, everyone!
I need to make a circuit that can sense if the mains voltage is 240 or 380 volts. In case it detects about 380 volts, a relay should turn on.
I guess I need a way to measure the mains voltage. It doesn´t have to be precise. Can I rectify and filter the mains, and use a voltage divider to scale down the high DC voltage,
to be read by a comparator?
Thank you.
