Shunt & Battery Wires
The shunt is the current sensor for the Link 10. Its 500 A, 50 mV rating
means that when 500 amps flows through it there is 50 mV generated
across it. The millivolt signal is translated into an amps display in the Link
10. For example: a 50 A load would generate 5 mV across the shunt and
would be displayed as
50 amps. Caution: in the diagram below, the darker
wires represent primary wiring and should be able to carry full battery
load current. Size appropriately!
