If those are the connectors I think they are, they're only rated to 12 or 13A (one of the reasons I don't sell shunts >10A).
If you want to model the PCB fusing current and/or temperature rise, I find the saturn pcb toolkit (PC download) invaluable. http://www.saturnpcb.com/pcb_toolkit.htm For testing, I have a couple of these: http://www.circuitspecialists.com/dc-electronic-load-csi3711a.html They have a few other models... http://www.circuitspecialists.com/programmable-dc-electronic-loads -forrest On Fri, Aug 28, 2015 at 4:55 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > OK, did a 10 amp test, no heat to speak of.
