Review on πŸ’‘ bayite AC 80-260V Digital Power Energy Analyzer with Current Voltage Meter and Open-Close Split Core CT by Rick Bear

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works great, looks great!

I had to mount a panel almost 12 feet (because the wiring was done) from the converter in my RV to the main control panel and I routed the voltage sensor and CT sensor cables with Belden 8723 060100 Cable. Shielded, 22 AWG, stranded, chrome-plated PVC, 3.2" H x 1.7" W x 1.8" D, and this wire protects the low-level CT signal well from stray currents (and voltages Belden cable is routed in 3/8" flexible tubing for added security (both for me and my insurance - Belden wire is not intended for plenum use) and heat shrink tubing (HS) around each terminated pair (for foil insulation. Shorting shield) and a large HV tube around both pairs (to isolate the outer shield ground wire, etc.) One end terminates inside the converter (where the voltage and CT measurement points are) and the other end is connected to a Byte panel installed in a two-piece duplex box.The Bayit panel mounts into a cutout made by a SHARP (!) razor blade in a Leviton 80725-E 2-gang wall panel with no tool , box shaped, ebony, made and finished with a black silicone bead around the edges attached to the plate. Looks great, works great!
