<p style=”text-align: left;”>I purchased three of these on Amazon.

I’ve followed the schematic from the website and the one on the back of the device and I can’t get any of them to show any AMP readings via the shunt
Its fairly straight forward, but any idea what may be wrong I’d like to think all three are not defective</p>

Hello Travis King,

To check what wrong it is, would you like to show us your connection by images?

Best regards.

I have the same problem. Here are pictures of the installation by a licensed electrician. I looked closely and noticed that the two wires (red/black) were not in the right screw terminals so I changed them but amps and watts are still not showing on the display.

Here are images:

Hello,

As per your picture, it should be this item, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07JC6X1JH/ref=as_li_tl?tag=proeng-20

May I know how large the actual current is? And is it possible for you to draw a simple diagram to show the complete connection? Just like the wiring diagram on the meter.

Best regards.
