3.3. Check System Voltage and Current

Ensure the battery shunt operates within a power system with a maximum system voltage of 120V and a continuous current of up to 300A. Exceeding these voltage and current limits may cause damage to the shunt.

8V to 120V

Risk of electric shock! Before installing the shunt, please turn off all devices within the system and ensure there is no current flowing through the circuit.

3.4. Size Bare Wires
Select proper bare wires based on the ampacity in your power system. Refer to the table below for copper cable ampacities with different gauge sizes.

Cable Gauge Size 14 AWG (2.08 mm²) 12 AWG (3.31 mm²) 10 AWG (5.25 mm²) 8 AWG (8.36 mm²) 6 AWG (13.3 mm²) 4 AWG (21.1 mm²)

Ampacity 35A 40A 55A 80A 105A 140A

Cable Gauge Size 2 AWG (33.6 mm²) 1 AWG (42.4 mm²) 1/0 AWG (53.5 mm²) 2/0 AWG (67.4 mm²) 4/0 AWG (107 mm²)

Ampacity 190A 220A 260A 300A 405A

The above values are from the NEC Table 310.17 for copper cables rated at 194°F (90°C), operating at an ambient temperature of no more than 86°F (30°C). Cables longer than 13 feet (4000 mm) may require thicker gauge wires to prevent excessive voltage drop in undersized wiring.

3.5. How to Install 3/8 in Lugs?

5.4. SOC Synchronization

To ensure reliable readout of the SOC of your battery, SOC synchronization is required, especially for batteries that have been used for an extended period.
A battery's capacity can degrade over time, so even if the battery may charge to full capacity, its actual capacity might not be as high as when it was new. For instance, a new battery rated at a full capacity of 100Ah can only charges to 90Ah after a year of use. In this case, recalibrating the SOC is required, using 90Ah as the new reference point, rather than the original 100Ah.
SOC synchronization should be performed in the following scenarios:
z During the initial shunt installation
z After there has been an interruption in the voltage supply to the DC Home or Renogy ONE
z When the battery has not been fully charged
z When the DC Home or Renogy ONE has not detected that the battery has been fully charged because the "Charging Amps" has been set incorrectly.
In this case, review the settings and make sure the battery regularly receives a full charge.

DC Home app

In the DC Home app, follow the steps below to synchronize the battery SOC in your system:

Step 1: Tap the shunt details page. Tap "... > Settings" in the upper-

Shunt 300

right corner of the page.

Step 2: Under "Battery", tap Sync in "SOC sync".

Step 3: You can choose "Sync to 100%", "Sync to 0%", "Customization" or "Cancel". It is recommended that you customize the SOC to match the actual SOC of your battery. Allowed value ranges from 0 to 100.
-- 18 --

Step 4: Tap "Sync" to complete the synchronization.

Renogy ONE

In Renogy ONE, follow the steps below to synchronize the battery SOC in your system:

Shunt 300

Step 1: Tap the shunt details page. Tap "..." in the upper-right corner of the page.

Step 2: Under "Battery", tap Sync in "SOC sync".

-- 19 --

Step 4: Tap "Sync" to complete the synchronization.

The version of the DC Home app and Renogy ONE might have been updated. Illustrations in the user manual are for reference only. Follow the instructions based on the current app version.

5.5. Essential Alarm Settings
The battery shunt provides diverse alarms to protect your battery from high temperature or voltage. Most settings can stay their factory default, but you can customize them to better serve your needs.

5.6. Historical Data
You can access the historical data of the connected battery via DC Home app or Renogy ONE Core.

Shunt 300

The following two parameters should be explained: z Last Discharged Ah: This value represents the amount of electrical charge (in ampere-hours)
that was consumed or discharged from the battery in the last discharge cycle. It is calculated by multiplying the discharge current (in amperes) by the duration of the discharge (in hours).
-- 22 --

z Last Charged Ah: This value represents the amount of electrical charge (in ampere-hours) that was added or charged into the battery during the last charging cycle. It is calculated by multiplying the charge current (in amperes) by the duration of the charge (in hours). Maintaining historical data is essential for diagnosing potential battery issues. Avoid clearing the history unless replacing the battery to preserve valuable information about its performance and behavior over time.

8. FAQ
What types of battery does the shunt work with? Battery Shunt 300 works with all types of batteries and battery banks between 8V and 120V, providing the settings are calibrated correctly. Can I monitor more than two batteries in parallel and series with one Battery Shunt 300? Yes, you can monitor more than two batteries in parallel and series with one Renogy Battery Shunt 300. Just ensure that the total system voltage and maximum current draw are within the specified limits, and follow the installation instructions accordingly. What is the maximum operational current for the battery shunt? The maximum continuous current for the Battery Shunt is 300A, with a maximum peak current of 500A. Prolonged operation at currents exceeding 300A may lead to device overheating and damage, with a serious risk of fire. It is crucial to use the device within the specified specifications. Why is the SOC or Time Remaining reading inaccurate? First, check if the wiring is correctly installed according to the guidelines. If the reading is still inaccurate, you may need to reset the calibration. Charge the battery to 100%, and then recalibrate the battery capacity data through the Renogy ONE or DC Home app (for details, see "5.4 SOC Synchronization"). This process should help ensure more accurate readings.

10. Maintenance
10.1. Inspection
For optimum performance, it is recommended to perform these tasks regularly. z Check the appearance of the Renogy Battery Shunt 300 to make sure it is clean and dry. z Ensure the Renogy Battery Shunt 300 is installed in a clean, dry and ventilated area. z Ensure there is no damage or wear on the cables. z Ensure the firmness of the connectors and check if there are any loose, damaged or burnt
connections. z Ensure that the Battery indicator and Fault indicator are in normal state. z Ensure there is no any corrosion, insulation damage, or discoloration marks of overheating or

the power supply. z Wipe the charger housing and connector contacts with a damp cloth or non-metallic brush. If it is
not clean after wiping, use a household cleaner. z Dry the Renogy Battery Shunt 300 with a clean cloth and keep the area around the Renogy Battery
Shunt 300 clean and dry. z Make sure the Renogy Battery Shunt 300 is completely dry before reconnecting the connector to the
Renogy Battery Shunt 300.
10.3. Storage
Follow the tips below to ensure that the Renogy Battery Shunt 300 is stored well. z Disconnect all connectors that are connected to the Renogy Battery Shunt 300. z By applying dielectric grease to each connector contact, the dielectric grease repels moisture and
