what size shunt do I need?
On a more important note:
A 70Amp alternator is undesized for charging a 220Ah house bank and will never fully charge the bank, which will lead to premature battery failure. ondawada wrote: Ahoy, what size shunt (can I make one?) do I need for this gauge? Specs: D.C. Ammeter - range to 75 amps Triplett Corp. Hendricks Electric Inc. Sticker on the back says: EIL Cat: 321T RGE: 50 MVDC SCL: 0-50 ?ADC (one of the letters is rubbed out, MADC?) I have a 70A alternator and 220AH house battery capacity. I'd like to do this myself if I can. I have a small shunt from a 12v battery charger but I don't think that will work. If the correct answer is "you need a 50mv, 70A shunt", where do I get one? Lot's of people selling 100A, 500A etc for solar pannels. Thanks for your time. |
