The holes are too small for anything bigger than 14 ga wire so keep them short.

The holes are stupidly small!This is a nice chip from Allegro, but#1 issue: op-amp choice of this board is wrong. A 40mV per amp, a 50 amp peak (35A RMS if AC volts), the output at Vcc of 5v will be Vcc/2 + 2 = 4.5 volts. The 2272C op amp has a Vcc-1.5v or 5v - 1.5v = 3.5 volts, so the buffered output will clip the output. The unbuffered output ou1 should look good. (I didn't test this). The op amp should be a rail to rail *input* model, not just rail-rail output!#2 issue the chip is output limited If using it at 3.3v supply. The idle voltage of Vcc/2 = 1.65 v so with 40mV per amp sensitivity, the output range limits the current range to 1.65/0.04 = 41.25 volts (29 amps RMS with sinusoid AC).So, if you need 50A peak / 35A RMS, then skip the buffered output, power at 5v and use your own op amp on the unbuffered output IF you need to bias the output for a 3.3 volt A/D input.If you need 3.3v yet are OK being limited at 28 amps, use the unbuffered output without the opamp.That said, the unbuffered output might be fine, just don't load it with a low impedance.

The biggest advantage of this module is its printed circuit board. It's easy to prototype with and it's cheap.Kudos to Mr James Murdock for catching the #1 issue with the buffer 2272C op amp -- it doesn't support rail-to-rail input.It may not be a problem though if AC current sensing is not required and DC current flows from IP- to IP+. Since the quiescent output is Vcc/2 at I=0, the output will stay in the lower half of the Vcc.However, I don't see the range limitation James described in his issue #2. The sensor's magnetic sensitivity is NOT 40 mV per Amp at 3.3 Vcc. It is 40 mV/A only at 5 Vcc. Its datasheet states:"Ratiometry. The device features a ratiometric output. Thismeans that the quiescent voltage output, VIOUTQ, and the magneticsensitivity, Sens, are proportional to the supply voltage, VCC."I just measured it. My 3.3 V supply runs a little high at 3.52 V and my Vcc/2 is 1.76 V. My measured magnetic sensitivity is 28.16 mV/A as it should be at 3.52 Vcc.Lastly, regarding the PCB holes being too small, the solid workaround is to solder your heavy gauge wire directly onto the J-leads of the sensor chip.

Can be safely attached when dealing with higher current demands. Solder points sized appropriately.
