Why Choose the Lovato DM34T1500 1500/5 A Current Transformer?
The Lovato DM34T1500 is a solid-core current transformer designed for high-current electrical measurement and monitoring applications. With a rated primary current of 1500 A and a standard 5 A secondary output, it provides a 1500/5 A transformation ratio for compatible energy meters, power analysers, ammeters and electrical monitoring equipment.
The DM34T1500 features a large 44 mm internal cable aperture, allowing it to accommodate substantial conductors used in industrial and commercial power distribution systems. Its closed-core construction provides a robust solution for new switchboard installations where the current transformer can be fitted during assembly or while the primary conductor is accessible.
With its high 1500 A primary rating and standardised 5 A secondary, the DM34T1500 enables high-current circuits to be monitored without routing the full load current through the measuring instrument. It is well suited to energy metering, power analysis, load monitoring and electrical consumption measurement in demanding distribution applications.

Reliable High-Current Measurement with a 5 A CT Secondary
A current transformer allows high electrical currents to be measured indirectly by producing a proportional, lower secondary current for compatible instrumentation. With the Lovato DM34T1500, a rated primary current of 1500 A corresponds to a 5 A secondary output, enabling suitable meters and analysers to measure the primary circuit without carrying the full load current.
The 44 mm conductor aperture makes the DM34T1500 suitable for large cables commonly encountered in high-current distribution systems. Its solid-core construction is particularly appropriate for new switchboards and installations where the transformer can be positioned over the conductor during assembly, providing a dependable measurement interface for energy management and power monitoring.
Typical Applications
- High-current energy metering installations.
- Industrial switchboards and distribution panels.
- Commercial building electrical distribution.
- Power analyser current inputs.
- Electrical load and consumption monitoring.
- Energy management systems.
- Large cable current measurement.
- Electrical circuits with primary currents up to 1500 A.
