The shunt should always be installed on the ground as near to the battery terminal as possible. NO OTHER connections should be attached to the terminal. ALL LOADS need to be attached to shunt (the side of the shunt that is not attached to the battery terminal). All this being said, there is no good reason not to have the shunt in the battery compartment and even on/attached to the battery. Keeping it there ensures future installations don't inadvertently get attached directly to the battery terminal.
