I required an enclosure for a 50A shunt to prevent people touching it.

To make it more interesting, I also added a DIN-rail mount because... DIN rails.

You'll need some additional material:

) https://docs.rs-online.com/31c6/0900766b81362850.pdf (pt. #: 3020-01096-0)

) 2x Banana socket (https://at.rs-online.com/web/p/bananenstecker/7872782/)

) 2x M5 hex nuts

) 2x M5x12-20 screws

) 4x M3x10-25 coarse thread countersunk screws

) some piece of thin wire or some thick thread or a piece of filament for operating the DIN-rail release mechanism

I also have an older version without DIN rail mount (blue version in pics). I can upload that too if there's demand.

 

edit: updated the enclosure for an additional protective cover for the current leads. Download version #6 if you wish for better protection.

Notes:

 

Print it in some heat-resistant material; the shunts can get really hot when fully loaded. I made mine in PET-G, ABS and PC. Some flexible properties for the spring/release mechanism is also a good idea. No long-term experience yet.

Print the case with some concentric support at the bottom and the lid with caption on top and 1-2 concentric support lines at the edge.
