Why Choose the Lovato DM0TA0200 Split-Core Current Transformer?
The Lovato DM0TA0200 is a split-core current transformer designed for accurate current measurement in electrical distribution, energy monitoring and industrial metering systems. Its split-core construction allows the transformer to be installed around an existing conductor or busbar without disconnecting the primary circuit, making it particularly practical for retrofit installations.
The DM0TA0200 provides a 200 A primary current rating with a standard 5 A secondary output. It offers Class 1 accuracy with a 2.5 VA burden and operates at 50–60 Hz, providing a dependable measurement signal for compatible energy meters, digital multimeters and power analyzers.
A generous 32 × 21 mm conductor aperture accommodates common busbars and conductors, while screw terminals and screw fixing provide secure electrical and mechanical installation. With 720 V rated insulation voltage and IP30 protection, the DM0TA0200 is designed for dependable service inside industrial switchboards and electrical panels.

Reliable & Convenient Current Measurement
Current transformers provide a proportional secondary current that allows meters and monitoring equipment to measure high primary currents safely and conveniently. The Lovato DM0TA0200 converts a primary current of up to 200 A into a standard 5 A secondary signal for connection to compatible measuring instruments.
The split-core construction is especially useful when upgrading existing switchboards because the transformer can be opened and fitted around an installed conductor. This reduces installation work compared with conventional solid-core transformers while retaining the measurement performance required for industrial energy monitoring and electrical distribution applications.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical distribution boards.
- Energy meters and power analyzers.
- Electrical load and current monitoring.
- Building energy management systems.
- Industrial switchboards and control panels.
- Retrofit metering installations.
- Busbar current measurement.
