Hi,
Can someone in the know please give me some advice on a purchase.
I bought what I was led to believe was a genuine Victron CT clamp on eBay (I know), and paid a premium for it. The seller included CTR110000500 in the listing title and description. Yet this it what arrived. It appears to be a generic version, the brand doesn't even match. YHDO, not YHDC.
I started a return request but the seller replied -:
"As stated, this is the version with the 1m lead. The important part is that it is the 100a/50ma SCT013 (with a burden resistor added to the coil) This will work fine with the MultiPlus II and is what the manufacturer sent for our last bulk order."
Can someone shed some light on it please? Am I right in thinking this is not a CT clamp packaged and distributed by Victron? My argument is the part may or may not work, regardless if I wanted a compatible CT clamp instead of a genuine Victron distributed and approved part I could have picked one up from Amazon for £9, and at least then it would be the same brand. I know I should have used a recommended Victron distributor, but it was a spare of the moment purchase.
Thanks.
