Description: Simpson Electric 10 Amp Current Shunt (50mV, Tested - Works Great) Current shunt is in good condition overall. I used it to check the ammeter on my DC power supply, and it works great, the readings were dead on. The resistor is a bit bent, and does look like it may have been reattached at some point, as there is solder on both ends. Cosmetically there is some general wear and fading/aged appearance, as it is an older current shunt. There is some scratches, scrapes, dings and small spots of oxidation on the brass. The screw and bolt terminals are in good shape, there is a bit of wear on the screw slots and around the hex bolts. See photos for cosmetic detail. I use copper wire to go from the ammeter/power supply to the larger bolt post terminals. Then I put copper wire in the smaller screw terminals with bare wire on the opposite ends. I hook my multimeter up reading mV to the bare wire ends with alligator probes, and take my reading in mV at each setting on the ammeter/power supply that I'm checking. To calculate the reading off the shunt you would take the multimeter reading and divide by 50 (50 mV shunt). Take the result, and multiply it by the amp rating of the shunt (10 amps). The result should match the setting on the ammeter/power supply.
