Why Choose the Lovato DM1TP0300 Current Transformer?

The Lovato DM1TP0300 is a precision solid-core current transformer designed to convert a primary current of 300 A into a standard 5 A secondary output for compatible energy meters, multifunction instruments and power analysers. Its through-hole construction provides a Ø28 mm aperture for cables and also accommodates selected rectangular busbars.

Designed for accurate electrical measurement, the DM1TP0300 provides Class 0.5s accuracy at 2.5 VA and Class 0.5 accuracy at 5 VA. It operates across 50–60 Hz, supports continuous overload up to 120% of rated primary current and has a rated insulation voltage of 720 V.

The transformer can accommodate 30 × 10 mm, 25 × 15 mm and 20 × 20 mm busbars as well as suitable cables through its circular aperture. Screw secondary terminals and the choice of DIN rail or screw fixing make the DM1TP0300 a practical solution for switchboards, metering panels and industrial energy-monitoring installations.

Precision 300/5 A Current Measurement

A current transformer converts the higher current flowing through a primary conductor into a proportional secondary current suitable for electrical measuring instruments. The Lovato DM1TP0300 converts a nominal 300 A primary current into a standard 5 A secondary signal, allowing compatible energy meters, ammeters and power analysers to monitor higher-current circuits accurately.

The Ø28 mm aperture accepts suitable cables, while compatibility with 30 × 10 mm, 25 × 15 mm and 20 × 20 mm busbars provides flexibility for switchboard installations. Its Class 0.5s accuracy at 2.5 VA makes the DM1TP0300 particularly suitable for energy-monitoring applications where precise current transformation is required.

Typical Applications

  • Three-phase and single-phase energy-metering systems.
  • Industrial electrical switchboards.
  • Commercial distribution panels.
  • Multifunction electrical meters.
  • Power and network analysers.
  • Building energy-management systems.
  • Industrial energy monitoring.
  • Busbar-based electrical distribution systems.
  • Machine and production equipment monitoring.
  • Electrical load and consumption analysis.
