Is the shunt not for a Trimetric monitor? Read the installation manual--it is quite clear on what goes where. Shunts go on the neg side. BTW you want the 500a shunt for the higher amps the inverter will draw, not the 100a.
The inverter wiring is for the amps you will see. The surge rating is for a very short moment that might happen. The fuse on the pos is supposed to protect the wires in that case, like an ANL fuse will not blow right off, but gives a moment for the surge to go away before it blows but then it will if it stays on.
Others might correct me on that but they would have to explain it, which is ok if they do.
