Does anyone use a current sensing relay to power a lite to show that a pump or a blower fan motor is running,without going out to your outdoor stove? If you do,what brand do you use and what was the cost?

RW you may already have something know. I used a 120 volt led light i got from grainger. Cost was aound 10 bucks. Installed so when fan is running light is on. I will try to find part # for you.
Grainger item# 1XWL4 line voltage.

Thanks beeman, but when I did the install I pulled several extra wires through the conduit from the house to the OWB so I used on of them connected to the output of the aquastat to power the neon lamp on my monitering panel. The only thing is, it shows there is power to the fan motor but does not know if the motor is runing or not. It has worked well so far so I am going to let it alone for now.
