Shunt Measurement : Multimeter Setup (Option)
The precision shunt measurement function allows accurate measurement of current shunts by
monitoring the current supplied to the shunt and voltage measured across the shunt. By monitoring
both the current and voltage the 8000 Series can provide an accurate measurement of the current
shunt connected.
The diagram shows the connection configuration required, using a 3000 Series to provide the 30A
current source and both the current and voltage measured by the 8000 Series. When SHUNT
MEASUREMENT mode is selected, the 8000 Series will automatically switch between voltage and
current measurement terminals in a continuous cycle until shunt mode is exited.
