Yeah, I will give you that I missed the "powered from the measured voltage"
part. It becomes a bit less trivial. Practically impossible.
As for sticking pins through the wire a foot apart, you are going to get
more contact resistance (and corrosion as time goes on) than the shunt
itself. If you are using the primary wire as the shunt, I would break the wire,
use a terminal strip with a shorter piece of thinner wire a few inches long,
then back to the larger wire.

Stick 2 pins through the
