Under battery. Seemed like a good place in between the alternator and the pass through for the wire without needing any crazy bends or turns. Remember you need 1amp fuses in each leg off the shunt to the G3X.

Someone posted a link to small 1 amp fuses for electronics use, I think I got some from Digikey, they look like tiny resistors. I'm not using an ANL but a 60 amp CB in the cabin.
I have two shunts and current limiters since I have added a second alternator and power bus.
My primary shunt/limiter set up looks almost identical to Jared's post above.
I'm posting this image of my second shunt/limiter to show the fusible links I used instead of inline or panel mounted fuses. I had a bunch on hand left over from my first aircraft build. One amp inline fuses would work just as well.
The second set of contactors are for a ground power bus and to crossfeed my two power buses together. All straight out of the Aeroelectric book.
