    Cable size / loss

    I went to a cable calculator and entered length and voltage and current and for 100 amps at 12volts for 3 meters it said I needed 120mm2 lol, then I saw an option for acceptable loss, it was on 1%.

    Amp meter shunt?

    Hi people, I was thinking about adding an amp meter to my system, running the amp supplies through a shunt, is there any reason why that wouldn't be advised. Will the shunt deliver the power just the same as a copper cable? Sent from my E5823 using Tapatalk
