AShunt-Slide2

Precision shunts are very precise resistors inserted into a circuit in order to measure the current flowing through that circuit. The shunt does this by providing a small voltage across its resistance proportional to the current flowing through the shunt. This can be clarified using Ohm’s Law, which states that the voltage will be equal to the current multiplied by the resistance (V=I*R). Shunts are typically rated according to a full-scale current rating and the corresponding voltage output.
