High current shunt resistors for kWh
meters
Rhopoint Components has unveiled a new range of high current shunt resistors ideally suited for kWh meters and other high current, low ohm, shunts where a high degree of precision is needed
With energy now firmly on most people's agendas thanks to the Climate Change Levy, Rhopoint Components has unveiled a new range of high current shunt resistors The new resistors are ideally suited for kWh meters and other high current, low ohm, shunts where a high degree of precision is needed
The resistors are made from punched electron beam welded Copper Manganin Copper or Copper Aluchrome Copper.
Three new models are available, two are PCB mounted and one is a bus bar mounted version.
One of the PCB mounted versions has convenient screw terminals, which allows the bus bar connections to be made to the printed circuit board.
Versions are available with resistance values down to 0.16 milliohms.
