#111045 - NOT isolated
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Kai Klaas said:

Normally, voltage dividers in the MOhm range are used to do the job. Remember, input impedance of a DVM (Digital Volt Meter) normally is about 10MOhm.


And also THIS CIRCUIT IS NOT ISOLATED FROM THE MAINS SUPPLY EXTREME CAUTION IS NEEDED.
