Overview
The eGauge supports Rope CTs from three different manufacturers. In order to determine which CT to select, refer to the tables below.
eGauge branded CTid rope CTs (ERA-106-xxxx) are not meant to be manually set and should be scanned using the CTid function accessed from the eGauge Installation Settings page. For more information please see: Configuring CTid enabled sensors.
JD CTs
For JD CTs (colored red) there will be a label located on the CT clip itself:

Note that eGauge no longer stocks Magnelab Rope CTs, but you may encounter them in the field (and the eGauge still supports them). If the CT features a separate calibration tag, this should be noted.
Additional CT types are supported - see our CT Selection Guide for a more comprehensive overview. Connecting CTs which do not meet requirements for supported CTs may result in reduced accuracy or damage to the eGauge.
