Why Choose the Lovato DMK02 Single-Phase Digital Voltmeter/Ammeter?
The Lovato DMK02 is a versatile single-phase digital voltmeter or ammeter designed for flush mounting in electrical panels and switchboards. As part of the Lovato DMK digital metering range, it can be configured to measure either AC voltage or current, providing a practical monitoring solution for industrial and commercial electrical distribution systems.
The instrument uses True RMS measurement for both voltage and current, helping provide reliable readings in real-world electrical installations. When configured as a voltmeter, it measures from 15–660 V AC. When configured as an ammeter, it accepts a 5 A CT secondary input with a measurement range of 0.05–5.75 A, allowing the primary current transformer ratio to be programmed for higher-current circuits.
Powered from a 220–240 V AC, 50/60 Hz auxiliary supply, the DMK02 also stores and displays minimum and maximum measured values. Its compact flush-mounted thermoplastic housing, removable terminals and IP54 front protection make it suitable for professional panel installations where clear and dependable single-phase voltage or current monitoring is required.

Flexible Single-Phase Voltage and Current Monitoring
Digital panel meters such as the Lovato DMK02 provide clear monitoring of important electrical values directly at a distribution panel or switchboard. The same instrument can be configured as a voltmeter or ammeter, allowing installers to standardise on a single meter platform for different single-phase measurement requirements.
When used as an ammeter, the programmable current transformer ratio enables the DMK02 to monitor circuits carrying currents substantially higher than its 5 A secondary input. Minimum and maximum value recording also helps operators identify voltage or current variations that may occur during equipment operation.
Typical Applications
- Industrial low-voltage switchboards.
- Commercial electrical distribution panels.
- Single-phase voltage monitoring.
- Current monitoring through external CTs.
- Motor and machinery control panels.
- Building services and plant room electrical monitoring.
