Shunts allow for current or voltage to be measured when the current on a DC line is high enough where it can damage devices directly connected to the line. It is a resistive element that is made of two conductive metals on the sides and then a strap of metal in between made of manganin, an alloy typically consisting of copper, manganese and nickel. The resistive element is placed directly on the DC line in series and provides low enough resistance as to not to impede or disrupt the flow of current, but just enough so that a range can be sampled. The voltage drop across the shunt is proportional to the current flowing through and with the resistance known an instrumentation device such as a panel meter can give an accurate reading in volts or current.
