Lovato DM1TA0600 split-core current transformer with a 600/5 A transformation ratio, 52 x 80 mm opening and 50/60 Hz operating frequency for electrical metering and energy monitoring systems.
£114.65
The Lovato DM1TA0600 is a reliable split-core current transformer designed for measuring primary currents of up to 600 A in electrical distribution, energy monitoring and industrial automation systems. Its 600/5 A transformation ratio provides a standard 5 A secondary output for connection to compatible energy meters, ammeters, multifunction measuring instruments and protection equipment.
Unlike a conventional solid-core current transformer, the DM1TA0600 features a hinged split-core construction that can be fitted around an existing conductor or busbar without disconnecting the primary circuit. This simplifies installation during electrical system upgrades and makes the transformer particularly suitable for retrofit energy-monitoring projects where reducing installation time and disruption is important.
With a generous 52 × 80 mm internal opening, the DM1TA0600 accommodates large conductors and rectangular busbars commonly found in industrial switchboards and power-distribution panels. It operates at 50/60 Hz and offers measurement burdens of 2.5 VA at accuracy class 0.5 and 5 VA at accuracy class 1, supporting dependable current measurement across a range of metering applications.
A current transformer reduces a high primary current to a proportional secondary current that can be safely measured by compatible instrumentation. The Lovato DM1TA0600 converts a primary current of up to 600 A into a standard 5 A secondary signal, allowing electrical meters and monitoring devices to measure current without being connected directly to the high-current conductor.
Its split-core arrangement is particularly valuable when upgrading an operational electrical installation. The transformer can be opened, positioned around the cable or busbar and securely closed in place, avoiding the need to remove or reroute the primary conductor. This helps reduce installation labour while supporting accurate monitoring of electrical loads, energy consumption and distribution-system performance.

The DM1TA0600 is used to measure high electrical currents in distribution panels, switchboards and industrial systems. It converts a primary current of up to 600 A into a proportional 5 A secondary output for compatible meters and monitoring instruments.
The current transformer has a transformation ratio of 600/5 A, meaning that a 600 A primary current produces a nominal 5 A secondary current.
Yes. Its split-core construction allows the transformer to be opened and fitted around an existing conductor or busbar without removing the primary cable, making it suitable for retrofit installations.
The DM1TA0600 has an internal opening measuring 52 × 80 mm, allowing it to accommodate large cables and rectangular busbars within those dimensions.
The transformer supports a burden of 2.5 VA at accuracy class 0.5 and 5 VA at accuracy class 1. The appropriate burden and accuracy depend on the connected instrument and secondary-circuit requirements.
Lovato Electric current transformers are used in industrial and commercial electrical systems to provide reliable current measurement, straightforward integration with metering equipment and flexible installation within modern power-distribution panels.
