While we (manufacturer) are not responsible for the prices on the UK=20
CHC website, I thought I should clarify the the CSM03 is actually a=20
dual sensor, ie there are two wired current transformers connected to=20
a printed circuit board which plugs into two adjacent zones on the=20
Comfort board. We changed to this type from the original CSM01 which=20
had one current transformer on a PCB, because with this new format,=20
the current transformer may be easily mounted even in an unaccesible=20
location and forgotten, while all the electronics are near the panel=20
where you can set the sensitivity of the current detection. There is=20
an LED to indicate that current is on and the zone is activated which=20
will be very useful when installing and setting up or=20
troubleshooting. This should be a very useful package for those who=20
need to detect current.

I'd buy a few more and doubtless end up buying extra expansion=20
