Reliable Current Measurement for High-Current Busbar Systems
Current transformers reduce a high primary conductor current to a proportional secondary current that can be safely used by compatible measuring and monitoring equipment. The Lovato DM38T2500 converts a nominal 2500 A primary current to 5 A secondary current, allowing high-current circuits to be monitored without routing the full line current through the measuring instrument.
The solid-core DM38 design is intended for busbar installations and accommodates a 64 × 64 mm busbar. Its class 0.5 measurement capability, standard 5 A output and flexible mounting options make it suitable for integration with compatible ammeters, multimeters, energy meters and monitoring equipment in industrial switchboards.
Typical Applications
- Industrial power distribution switchboards.
- High-current busbar measurement systems.
- Electrical energy monitoring installations.
- Digital multimeter current inputs.
- Panel-mounted ammeter systems.
