[QUOTE="roys, post: 560798, member: 5044"] Got an idea. Aliexpress not that I’m a fan and don’t know the quality but they sell a current monitoring relay that can be jumpered to set its relay contact on high or low current. Your live wire that goes to your circuit breaker in the house passes through this relay this allows it to monitor the current, This will only work if you do have a load on in the shed if it every goes to zero load because of demand or a trip it would alarm. This would take a wee bit of design to ensure safety but is very doable. Aliexpress relay: GEYA GRI8-05 DC Current Monitoring Relay straight-through 2A-20A AC24V-240V Over-current Under-current Protection As I say just at the thought stage. Where roughly in the country are you? [/QUOTE]
