In addition, a transducer is built in to switch on the amplifier when a load is switched on at the socket.

Since I didn't have time to calibrate the sensor properly, I just took a 60W light bulb and used that as a reference.
The accuracy is not important in this project, because I don't use the real voltage, instead I use the static factor of 230 (V).
