I have the Victron battery smart sense wired on my battery and would like to add the smart shunt ,how is this wired as nothing showed in the wiring diagrams, I have a 100/20 mttp regulator connected to a 250w solar panel with 2 x 105ah batteries, thanks
Wire the smart shunt between the battery and loads/ charging so that the shunt has all the load and charging current going through the shunt. This will allow the shunt see all the load or charging and properly calculate battery SOC
Thanks , I understand how to wire the smart shunt ,but was wondering how is the Battery Smart Sense wired to the the shunt , do I wire the negative of the Smart Sense to the shunt or battery ,thanks
@FreelanderUK, the SmartShunt can only measure current that passes through it, so while the consumption of the Smart Battery Sense is minuscule (0.3mA - 1.6mA at 12v), if you want the SmartShunt to account for that consumption you'll need to move the SBS negative from the battery terminal to the "Loads Minus" side of the SmartShunt.
Thanks for the reply’s guys most appreciated
