#measurement #current #shunt This tutorial video shows how to measure high DC current using a measuring shunt specially designed for these measurements. When measuring DC current, a measuring current transformer will not work. But a shunt is what you need! It basically converts the current flowing through this device into a voltage drop that we can measure with a millivoltmeter. According to Ohm's law, we can easily calculate the current knowing the resistance of the measuring current shunt.
