>> I don’t see why do you need dual ammeters? Connect it so it reads the main bus. Than turn one at the time. Don’t you >>disable one or the other with the field switch?

>> Buly

I wanted two ammeters because I have two independent/isolated feeds to the main bus – and I only have one bus. Each alternator is dedicated to 1 battery and 1 path onto the main bus. There is a shunt at the head of each path onto the bus.  Since this unit only reads one shunt I’ll just put in a switch so I can pick which shunt it looks at.
