Pickup currently not available
Product Description
Overview
The LMHK-612 (60×120 mm) 2500/5A Accuracy Class 0.5 is a high-precision, open / clamp-on (split-core) current transformer designed for heavy-duty electrical monitoring applications. With a massive primary current rating of 2500 A AC and a standard 5 A secondary output, this CT provides ±0.5% accuracy under rated conditions. The large window (≈ 60×120 mm) allows it to accommodate large busbars or multiple conductors, making it ideal for industrial, commercial, or utility electrical panels.
Key Features

Technical Specifications (Typical / Expected)
Specification | Value or Comments |
---|---|
Primary : Secondary Ratio | 2500 : 5 A |
Accuracy Class | 0.5 (±0.5%) under rated burden |
Window Aperture | Approx. 60 mm × 120 mm |
Rated Frequency | 50 / 60 Hz (verify with manufacturer) |
Maximum Burden (VA) | Usually in the order of 10-15 VA for transformers of this size and accuracy; must be confirmed |
Insulation / Dielectric Strength | High insulation, likely several kV for test rating; case designed to meet safety standards |
Operating / Ambient Temperature | Expected −25 °C to +75 °C (verify) |
Mounting / Installation | Clamp / split-core type; ensure good mechanical fit and locking; secure mounting essential |
Applications
-
Industrial switchgear and distribution boards with high current busbars
-
Utility metering / energy management in big commercial installations
-
Accurate power monitoring, billing, and power quality measurement where high currents are involved
-
Retrofit or upgrade jobs where the existing equipment or busbars cannot be dismantled
Installation & Safety Notes
-
Ensure the conductors or busbars fit cleanly through the large aperture without causing damage to insulation
-
Always connect the secondary winding to a measuring instrument or burden resistor; never leave secondary open when primary is energized — this can cause dangerous voltages
-
Clamp must be fully closed, locked, and mechanically secure for accurate performance and safety
-
Avoid placing near strong external magnetic or electromagnetic interference sources
-
Protect the unit from environmental extremes (humidity, dust, high temperature) beyond its rated limits
-
Adhere to local electrical codes, wiring, grounding, and insulation standards
Benefits
-
Very high current capacity (2500 A) in a compact design for large aperture systems
-
Excellent measurement accuracy (0.5%) — suitable for critical monitoring and billing applications
-
Clamp-on / split-core design for easier installation / retrofitting without service interruption
-
Durable design with safety minded features
