Paul,Btechrep:
I am preparing to replace my entire electrical service hopefully within the next 2-3 weeks. It will be a new 200 amp service. In the real world, how much difference in accuracy would there be between the split and donut type CTs?
I gather from previous comments that you would recommend the donut type CT instead of the one in the kit, is this correct? I have been planning to go with the donut type but the option of being able to remove the Split CTs without disturbing the wiring is pretty appealing.
Are the magnelab SCT-0750-200 Split CTs and the UCT-1000-200 donut type CTs of the same accuracy and quality as the ones you plan to provide?
If your UL listed CTs are not available yet, can you provide the magnelab SCT-0750-200 CT or the UCT-1000-200 with the package, or if I buy them seperately, will there be an adjustment on the cost for purchasing the kit without the CTs?
Would it be ok to contact your business by phone during the day for questions or purchase of a kit?
Thanks for all your support on this board.

There would not be much difference in accuracy if you use "donut" CTs instead of split core types.
Our CT accuracy is comparable (if not better) to Magnelab's.
Our CTs are now UL listed, however, the mold is being modified to imprint our UL and model number and company name. By the time this process is completed and the UL/c versions are manufactured it will be approx 40 days.
We had some Magnelab versions here but I believe they have been recently sold. I'll have to check. We cannot re-emburse you the cost of purchasing Magelab's CTs. If we still have some in stock, we can make a direct exchange.

Thanks for the reply.
I guess I could wait until your UL labeled CT's are available but I don't want the pricing you have set up for us to expire before I order. Should I go ahead and place an order and let the CT's be on backorder until the UL labeled ones are available?
Did I hear something about an RS232 version? If so, would this be in addition to or in place of the USB connection? What would the cost and availability be?
It would appear that RS232 would be an easy way to allow the unit to be placed further away from the computer.
Also did the ethernet version happen and if so, at what cost?
Thanks again,
Brian
Bump.
