Hey Noah G, thanks for the link.
Most of the components on the wind turbine are rated for 50Amps or above since the turbine can produce 500W at 12V hence the need for the shunt. Although a friend gave me a link to some much cheaper shunts that if I got the calculation right can take up to 32Amps and so I could put two in parallel to achive a higher rating: http://uk.rs-online.com/web/search/searchBrowseAction.html?method=getPro...
