Do CT's work around a bus bar compared to round wire conductors, or would there be some accuracy/calibration issue doing this?
I am upgrading my meter main (load center combo) as part of my solar install. My new meter doesn't feed with wire, just bus bar (see pic).

I found this post where others have done this, but I'm curious about the results.

Also, side note, I am disgusted with the quality of Enphase CT's. Check out my second pic here where the clip snapped despite very carefully prying up to get it to open. Wow these clips are insanely thin, brittle, and worthless. CTs must stay completely closed to work properly, that much is for sure. Pathetic engineering here. I'll have to try and get a couple wraps of tape around it just to keep it shut now.
