I've been looking at some nice 500μΩ shunts from Vishay, and a lot of them have a 5th leg - so you have the two power terminals, the two sense terminals, and an extra connection close to one of the power terminal holes.
I've found out it is used in power measurement to measure the voltage at the shunt connection, but I'd like to understand how it is used. Can anyone enlighten me?
Thanks in advance, as always
