Here’s an analogy that may help you understand battery monitor shunt wiring.
You have a train station. / You have a battery bank.
You have a train counter that can only count trains going on one track. / You have a shunt.
You want to count all the trains that come into the station. / You want to measure net current on the battery bank.
We installed 1,120W of solar through a Victron charge controller on this Class A motorhome. Routing solar cables through vehicles like this can be especially challenging but we were lucky to find a path through a bathroom cabinet. Special care had to be taken with the cables and shunt to preserve the functionality of the sliding battery rack.
