This project is about an accurate mains frequency meter that has a bar-graph displaying the relative deviation from nominal frequency. It can work with 50Hz and 60Hz systems.
An article by Dieter Laues in the February 2012 issue of Elektor inspired me to get my soldering iron out. The article described how by measuring the frequency of the mains electricity supply in any socket, the relative load across the entire electricity network could be determined
