A power supply apparatus 10 with circuit load sensor provides an extension
cord 20 having first and second ends extending from an enclosure 30. Within
the
enclosure, a power supply indicator circuit 40 lights an LED in response to
the plug
of the extension cord being inserted into a live outlet. Also within the
enclosure, a
power consumption indicator circuit 60 lights an LED in response to
consumption of
power by a load plugged into the socket of the extension cord. A nominal
voltage
drop across a TRIAC 70 carried in-line with the neutral conductor within the
enclosure triggers the power consumption indicator circuit when the load draws
current.
