Would you guys hook your solar wires and inverter wires to the bus bar or still take them to the battery's?
They go to the bus bars. The Trimetric shunt (or/plus an extension from its outer end to another bus bar) is the neg bus.
The only wires to the battery should be the fat neg from the inner end of the shunt and the fat pos from the pos bus bar plus the pos wire from the breakaway switch (with a battery disconnect switch interrupting that fat wire between bus and battery.)
The pos wire from the Trimetric also goes to the bus. It works as long as it is the same battery bank the neg from the shunt is on.
