AutoPilot 952-ST/DIG Cell Cable for Digital / DIG-220 / Generation II / Evolve Systems
AutoPilot 952-ST/DIG Cell Cable for Digital / DIG-220 / Generation II / Evolve Systems
AutoPilot 952-ST/DIG Cell Cord for Digital / DIG-220 / Generation II / Evolve Systems
OEM AutoPilot Replacement Cell Cable for Pool Pilot Digital, DIG-220, Generation II, and Evolve Systems
The AutoPilot 952-ST/DIG Cell Cord is a genuine OEM replacement salt cell cable designed for compatible AutoPilot Pool Pilot Digital, DIG-220, Generation II, and Pool Pilot Evolve salt chlorine generator systems. This cord provides the electrical connection between the control box and the salt cell, allowing the system to power the cell and maintain proper chlorine production.
A damaged, worn, corroded, loose, or overheated cell cord can create problems that look like a bad salt cell. Intermittent operation, communication errors, weak chlorine production, and repeated system alerts can all be caused by a poor cord connection. Replacing the cord with the correct OEM AutoPilot cable helps restore a dependable connection between the cell and the power center.
ATB Fitment Note
This listing is for the 952-ST/DIG Digital / DIG-220 / Generation II / Evolve style cell cord. It is not the same cord as the 952-SVC Nano / Nano+ / Total Control style cell cord. The salt cell end can look similar across AutoPilot cord styles, but the controller-side connection is different. Always match the cord to your installed power center or control box before ordering.

What Does This Cell Cord Do?
The AutoPilot 952-ST/DIG cell cord connects the control box to the salt cell. Without a solid cord connection, the system cannot consistently deliver the power needed for chlorine generation.
Because the cable operates around salt, moisture, and outdoor pool equipment, cord connections can deteriorate over time. Corrosion, looseness, heat damage, worn terminals, or damaged insulation can all affect performance and may create symptoms that are mistaken for a failed salt cell.
Common Reasons to Replace the Cell Cord
- Existing cord has corrosion at the cell or control box connection
- Connector shows heat marks, browning, melting, or discoloration
- Salt system has intermittent cell connection or communication problems
- Cell cord feels loose, brittle, cracked, or damaged
- You are installing a new salt cell and the existing cord is old or questionable
- System has repeated production issues after salt, flow, and water chemistry have been checked
- You want a clean, reliable connection between the cell and power center
Compatibility and Fitment
The AutoPilot 952-ST/DIG Cell Cord is intended for compatible AutoPilot systems that use the Digital / DIG-220 / Generation II / Evolve style cord connection. The correct cord depends on the power center or control box, not only on the replacement cell model.
Common Compatible System Styles
| Pool Pilot Digital | Compatible when the system uses the 952-ST/DIG style cell cord |
| DIG-220 | Compatible with DIG-220 systems using the Digital-style cord connection |
| Generation II Pool Pilot Systems | Compatible with Generation II systems using the matching DIG-style cord |
| Pool Pilot Evolve | Compatible with Evolve systems using the DIG / Gen II / Evolve style cord connection |
Important: This is not the cord for Nano, Nano+, Digital Nano Plus, or legacy Total Control style systems that use the 952-SVC cord. If you are unsure, send us photos of your power center label and existing cord connection before ordering.
952-ST/DIG vs 952-SVC Cell Cord
AutoPilot cell cords are commonly confused because some cell-side connections may look similar. The critical difference is the controller-side connection. The cord must match the installed control box.
| Cord Style | Common System Match | Use This When |
| 952-ST/DIG | Digital / DIG-220 / Generation II / Evolve systems | Your control box uses the DIG / Gen II / Evolve-style cord connection |
| 952-SVC | Legacy / Nano / Nano+ / Total Control style systems | Your control box uses the legacy/Nano-style cord connection |
Do not choose the cord based on the cell alone. Match it to the power center model, controller label, and existing cable connection.
ATB Expert Tip
If your AutoPilot system is showing intermittent cell operation, communication issues, or inconsistent chlorine output, inspect the cord before assuming the cell has failed. Corrosion, loose fitment, heat damage, and worn terminals can all cause repeat problems. If you are ordering a new salt cell and the old cord looks questionable, replacing both at the same time is often the smarter move.
Installation Notes
Before replacing the cell cord, shut off power to the AutoPilot salt system. Disconnect the old cord carefully and inspect both the salt cell connection and the power center connection for moisture intrusion, corrosion, heat damage, or loose terminals.
Install the replacement 952-ST/DIG cord only on compatible Digital / DIG-220 / Generation II / Evolve style systems. After installation, confirm the cord is seated securely, restore power, and verify that the system powers up and communicates with the cell correctly.
If the previous cord showed signs of overheating, melting, or severe corrosion, inspect the salt cell and power center connection points before installing the replacement cord. Damaged connection points can shorten the life of the new cable or cause repeat failures.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the AutoPilot 952-ST/DIG cell cord?
The 952-ST/DIG is a replacement cell cable used to connect compatible AutoPilot Pool Pilot control boxes to the salt cell. It is commonly used with Pool Pilot Digital, DIG-220, Generation II, and Pool Pilot Evolve systems that require the Digital-style cord connection.
Is this the correct cord for Pool Pilot Digital?
Yes, this is the Digital / DIG-220 / Generation II / Evolve style cord used on compatible Pool Pilot Digital systems that require the 952-ST/DIG connection.
Does this work with DIG-220 and Generation II systems?
Yes, this cord is intended for compatible DIG-220 and Generation II Pool Pilot systems that use the matching Digital-style cord connection.
Does this work with Pool Pilot Evolve?
Yes, the DIG-style cell cable also applies to compatible Pool Pilot Evolve systems.
Does this work with Nano, Nano+, or Total Control style systems?
No. Those systems typically use the 952-SVC / Legacy / Nano / Total Control style cord, not this 952-ST/DIG Digital-style cord.
Does the cord depend on the cell model or the control box?
The cord should be selected based on the control box or power center. Some AutoPilot cells can physically resemble each other at the cell end, but the controller-side cord connection is what determines the correct cable.
When should I replace my AutoPilot cell cord?
Replace the cord if it shows corrosion, heat damage, melting, cracking, loose connection, intermittent operation, or damaged terminals. It is also smart to replace the cord when installing a new salt cell if the existing cord is old or questionable.
Can a bad cell cord make my salt cell look bad?
Yes. A bad cord can cause poor chlorine production, intermittent operation, or system errors that may look like a bad salt cell even when the cell is still usable.
What is included?
This listing includes the replacement AutoPilot 952-ST/DIG cell cord only. Salt cell, power center, manifold, sensors, unions, and other parts are sold separately unless specifically stated.
How do I confirm fitment?
