CT For Circuit Consumption

Can a basic CT coil for monitoring a individual circuit be easily integrated into loxone?

Without the need of a controller/modbus integration?

You have to use one that has a built in shunt so they give a voltage output rather than current. This can be fed straight in to a Loxone analogue input. That said, the one I used (£10 off eBay) varies so much I can’t really rely on it for anything meaningful. Just writing this has made me think the output is probably AC – It might need to go through an AC-DC rectifier to be useful.
