Why Choose the Lovato DM6T6000 Current Transformer?
The Lovato DM6T6000 is a robust solid-core current transformer for busbar installations designed to provide accurate current measurement in high-current electrical distribution, metering and monitoring applications. As part of the Lovato Electric current transformer range, it converts a primary current of 6000 A to a standard 5 A secondary output for use with compatible meters, power analysers and protection equipment.
Designed for large busbars, the DM6T6000 provides a practical solution for electrical panels and industrial distribution systems where direct measurement of very high current is not possible. Its solid-core construction offers dependable performance, while screw terminals provide secure secondary connections and its mounting design supports installation by DIN rail or screw fixing.
With a 6000/5 A transformation ratio and accommodation for busbars up to 127 × 225 mm, the DM6T6000 is suited to high-capacity switchboards, power distribution systems and industrial energy monitoring installations. It operates at 50–60 Hz and provides burden ratings of up to 100 VA at class 0.5 and 180 VA at class 1.

Reliable Current Measurement for Electrical Distribution Systems
Current transformers such as the Lovato DM6T6000 reduce high primary currents to a standard secondary current that can be safely measured by electrical meters and monitoring devices. This allows accurate measurement of high-current circuits without routing the full load current directly through the connected instrumentation.
The DM6T6000 is particularly suited to large industrial switchboards and power distribution installations using substantial busbars. Its 5 A secondary output allows straightforward integration with compatible Lovato energy meters, power analysers, ammeters and other current-measuring equipment.
Typical Applications
- Industrial low-voltage switchboards.
- High-current electrical distribution panels.
- Energy metering and power monitoring systems.
- Industrial power analysers and ammeters.
- Large busbar installations.
- Factories, infrastructure and commercial electrical systems.
