3.4.3 1000 A to 5000 A Standard Shunt Values
The shunt element assembly consists of two large copper terminal blocks to which a number of equal
length straight manganin resistance plates are brazed. The current terminals are formed into the
ends of the terminal blocks to provide multiple cable connection points. Separate potential terminal
binding posts are attached to the top of the current terminal blocks. The shunt element assembly is
attached to an insulated base plate. A perforated metal sheet is used to protect the shunt element
assembly from physical damage and to allow natural or forced air convection.
Figure 3-3 illustrates an entire shunt assembly for the 1000 A to 5000 A full scale current ranges.
