I would like to use multiple shunt resistors in parallel to reduce power dissiption to the power specified per resistor. However these resistors are 4-terminal resistors WSL40265L000FEB. The reason being I need the accuracy they provide. My CS amp has input range of +/- 50mV . Current passing is from 0 to +/-200A, which yields 10watts.
Idea 1: Use 1 of the 4-terminal resistors in parallel with a normal(2 pin) shunt resistor of the same value. Does this defeat the purpose of the 4 Kelvin connection?
Idea 2: Use 2 of the mentioned resistors in parallel, and connect the Kelvin pins in parallel before going to the amplifier (however it might be difficult in layout.)
Idea 3: Using 2 of the 4-terminal resistors in series and connect the Kelvin pins in series, also difficult in layout.
Please advise what would be the best method.
