In addition to the shunt that came with the G3X sensor package I also used a 20 amp 50 mv shunt from BandC Specialty
(http://www.bandc.biz/ammeterloadmetershunts-1.aspx) to measure the output of the SD8 backup alternator.
The UMA 1C4 (50mV/100A type) shunt that came with the G3X sensor package is giving me reasonable values for my main alternator under Main Bus Amps.
When I shut my main alternator off to test the SD8 (8 amp max output), the Essential Bus Amps was showing 38 amps.
Is the shunt from BandC not compatible with the G3x? Perhaps I have something else going on?
Thanks,
Andy
