Voltage detectors?

Hi folks,

Anyone seen a non-intrusive voltage detector around?  Thinking about
something similar to those "pens", but with a usable output 
which can be
hooked upto a sensor board (eg the barionet).

My problem is that I take my mains incomer into my switchover panel for a
generator, then onto my UPS kit.  If the power fails, the UPS tells me it
sees the loss between power going and generator starting, but after the
generator is engaged, I don't know if mains is present or not.  The switch
over panel has no usable outputs for me, so was looking for a non-intrusive
sensor (sitting on the UPS power of course!) to watch for mains.
