Product Description

Overview

The LMCK-36 600/5A Accuracy Class 0.5 is a high-capacity, high-precision split-core current transformer ideal for metering, monitoring, and protection in electrical systems drawing up to 600 amps. It converts a 600 A primary current to a 5 A secondary current, with ±0.5% accuracy under rated conditions. The 36 mm aperture (window) gives flexibility for larger conductors or busbars, making it suitable for demanding industrial or commercial installations.


Key Features

  • Primary Current Rating: 600 A AC 

  • Secondary Current Rating: 5 A AC 

  • Accuracy Class: 0.5 (±0.5%) — ensures quite precise measurements for metering and power monitoring under rated load

  • Model / Series: LMCK-36 — 36 mm inner diameter window / hole size for the conductor. 

  • Design: Split-core (clamp-on) with self-locking mechanism for tool-free, non-invasive mounting 

  • Housing: Flame-retardant plastic that meets isolation and safety norms; moisture-protected; stable performance with minimal maintenance. 


Technical Specifications (Typical / From LMCK-36 Data)

Specification Typical Value / Comment
Window / Aperture Diameter ~36 mm (inner hole size) 
Accuracy Class 0.5 (±0.5%)
Current Ratio 600:5 A
Rated Frequency 50/60 Hz (common for LMCK series) 
Housing Material Flame-retardant plastic, isolation per UL94-V0 etc. 
Burden / Secondary Load (to be confirmed with datasheet; typical values may be in the few VA range)
Operating Temperature Range (manufacturer spec needed)
Safety / Isolation Secondary must never be open when primary is energized; safe insulation, protective enclosure.

Applications

  • High current panel and switchboard metering / monitoring

  • Industrial machinery, busbar systems, large HVAC units, etc.

  • Retrofit installations where existing conductors are in place and cannot be interrupted

  • Use with submeters, power analyzers, energy management systems


Installation & Safety Guidelines

  • Ensure the conductor or busbar fits through the 36 mm window without forcing or damaging insulation

  • Always connect the secondary output to a load (meter, burden resistor) — do not leave secondary open when the primary is energized

  • Clamp fully closed and locked; ensure mechanical stability

  • Avoid placing near strong external magnetic interference or extreme environmental exposure

  • Follow relevant local safety, grounding, electrical code requirements


Benefits

  • Very good measurement accuracy (0.5%) — suitable for applications where precision matters (billing, energy auditing, sensitive monitoring)

  • Non-intrusive installation — clamp-on design reduces downtime / labor costs

  • Capable of handling 600 A on primary, which works for fairly large loads

  • Durable housing, moisture protection, stable performance
