ABSTRACT:
A circuit arrangement for detecting an input voltage comprises an oscillator responsive to the voltage, the oscillator including a pair of transistors (8, 9) connected as an astable multivibrator, each of the transistors having a load which comprises a primary winding (16 or 17) of a current transformer (T) and a low resistance proof resistor (12 or 13). A current flows through a secondary winding (18) of the transformer the amplitude of which current is proportional to the input voltage.
