I want to determine whether house power is on at a remote location. The microcontroller whose job it is to do this will be powered by a UPS. Presumably I need some kind of relay but it is unclear to me what kind of relay and how to sample the ac power. If I use a power cube  to put a low voltage onto a relay then what I am detecting is whether or not the power cube is working. Is there a way to directly sample the AC power?
