Why Choose the Lovato DM5TP2000 Current Transformer?
The Lovato DM5TP2000 is a precision solid-core current transformer designed for high-current electrical metering, power analysis and energy-monitoring applications. It provides a 2000/5 A transformation ratio, converting a rated 2000 A primary current into a standard 5 A secondary signal for compatible energy meters, multimeters and power analysers.
Designed for large conductors, the DM5TP2000 features an approximately Ø86 mm conductor aperture. Its precision metering characteristics make it suitable for demanding industrial installations where substantial feeder currents need to be measured accurately without routing the full primary current through the measuring instrument.
The transformer is intended for 50–60 Hz AC systems and uses screw secondary terminals for secure wiring. Its solid-core construction, industrial insulation system and standard 5 A secondary output make the DM5TP2000 a practical choice for integration into high-current switchboards and power-distribution equipment.

Reliable & Accurate High-Current Measurement
The Lovato DM5TP2000 allows compatible measuring instruments to monitor very high AC currents without carrying the full primary current through the meter. At its rated operating point, the transformer converts 2000 A on the primary conductor into a proportional 5 A secondary current for connection to suitable current-input measuring equipment.
Its large conductor opening makes the DM5TP2000 particularly useful in substantial industrial distribution systems where heavy cables or conductors are employed. The solid-core design provides a robust current-sensing arrangement for new installations where the primary conductor can be routed through the transformer during assembly.
