Model: ESD-xxx-yyy

 

CTid

  • This is a powered sensor that requires the ESH044 Sensor Hub to install.
  • CTid enabled hardware is only compatible with EG4xxx and newer models.  Legacy meters (eGauge 2 and EG3xxx) are not compatible with this hardware.
 

Overview

eGauge DC CTs (model ESD-xxx-yyyy) measure the amperage on the conductor of a DC (direct current) system. Combined with DC voltage measurements (through the DC port on the eGauge meter, or the high voltage EV1000 sensor) this allows DC power and DC energy calculations. DC CTs do not need to be used in conjunction with DC voltage measurements to simply measure amperage.

eGauge Systems currently offers 16mm 50A, 24mm 100A, and 36mm 300A DC CTs.

The eGauge DC CTs contain CTid for auto-detection and has an onboard LED that can be used to identify which CT is connected to a given sensor port, which can be useful if the CT leads cannot be traced from the meter to the conductors being monitored.
