I’m doing a project where you have to detect a lightbulb coming on through the electrical current and was wondering what Hardware and what the program is? Can y’all help? Very much appreciated if y’all do.

    What kind of Arduino will you be using? – VE7JRO♦ Aug 29 at 22:07

    What about a current sensor? The code depends on the sensor. Choose a fitting one and try to interface it with an Arduino. You can always come back with a specific question – chrisl Aug 29 at 22:37

  • I never thought about a current sensor. Thank you very much – Chasney Griggry Aug 29 at 23:32

A suitable piece of hardware would be a ACS712 Current Sensor which can be used with any Arduino which runs on 5 volts -for instance an Arduino Uno.

You may find this guide useful in writing the program.
