what is shunt?
Shunts are a type of resistor that is specifically designed to measure current. They work by creating a voltage drop across the resistor as a result of the current flowing through it. By measuring this voltage drop, we can calculate the current passing through the shunt using Ohm's law (I=V/R).
A measurement method for parallel resistance of solar cells 1. The larger the series resistance is, the more the short circuit current drops, and the more the filling factor will accordingly; The smaller the shunt resistance, the greater the current, the more the open circuit voltage drops, and the more the fill factor drops.
Motor test measurements usually require ammeters to be equipped with multiple shunt units to solve the problem of ensuring the desired measurement accuracy over a larger measurement range. At this point, the rated voltage drop of all shunt used must match that of the ammeter (e.g. 75 mV).

Three key parameters of the shunt
The shunt used in the power battery PACK is essentially a resistor to detect the current value flowing. Since the current value is not easy to monitor, most of them are converted into voltage at present, that is, when the current passes, the resistor generates a voltage drop, and the voltage value is detected to calculate the passed current value, which is based on U=IR.
The 7550A is an ammeter with a measurement range from 1µA to 250A. The voltage on the shunt is switched to the internal four-and-a-half-digit AC and DC ammeter directly displayed by the five file-bit buttons and on the external output terminal. AC and DC current values with high accuracy and resolution.
In essence, electrical components all have inductive components, but in different scenarios, the main characteristics displayed are different. We only say which is a resistive component and which contains an inductive component, mainly considering two factors.
Simply put, it is to effectively use the range of the voltmeter. For example, a voltmeter with a full scale of 75mv, the object to be measured is a current of about 20A, you choose the shunt resistance R, and R*20A should preferably fall on the middle of the 75mV range, such as 3mΩ to 3.5mΩ for comparison Suitable.
The shunt conductor is a three-dimensional entity. Under the action of high-frequency current, the distribution of the current in the conductor obviously shows a skin effect, and most of the current flows on the surface of the conductor.
