Reliable Current Measurement for Electrical Systems
The Lovato DM0T0080 produces a proportional secondary current that allows connected measuring equipment to monitor an 80 A circuit without carrying the full primary load. This provides electrical isolation between the measured conductor and the connected metering equipment while simplifying current measurement in power distribution systems.
The standard 5 A secondary output makes the transformer suitable for many industrial meters and power analysers. Its compact solid-core construction is particularly appropriate for new switchboard assemblies where the primary conductor can be passed through the transformer during installation.
Typical Applications
- Electrical distribution panels.
- Industrial switchboards.
- Multifunction power meters.
- Energy monitoring systems.
- Power quality analysers.
- Motor control centres.
- Building management systems.
- Commercial and industrial electrical installations.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Lovato DM0T0080 used for?
The DM0T0080 converts an 80 A primary current into a standard 5 A secondary signal for compatible electrical meters, analysers and monitoring equipment.
What transformation ratio does the DM0T0080 provide?
The current transformer has an 80/5 A transformation ratio.
What is the cable aperture of the DM0T0080?
The transformer has a 22 mm diameter circular aperture through which the monitored conductor is passed.
What is the rated burden of this current transformer?
The Lovato DM0T0080 has a rated burden of 1.5 VA.
Can the DM0T0080 be installed around an existing cable?
No. The DM0T0080 has a solid core, so the conductor must be disconnected and passed through the aperture during installation. A split-core transformer is normally required for installation around an existing connected cable.
