I just had an idea on a way to measure AC current. The idea is to take a small resistor .01 ohms and put it in series with the AC load. To isolate this from the AC line one could use a surplus 600 ohm tel. transformer. The benefit of this would be that the parts are very inexpensive versus a dedicated current transformer. A clamp-on style is not desirable in this application.
