The other thing to remember is even though the shunt output is only 50mV -- each "side" of 50 mV ie plus and neg is still at DC line voltage (plus or minus) depending on which side you place shunt.  I would definitely fuse the 50mV signal leads going to the meter with say 1/2 amp quick blow instrument fuses.

It is for this reason that shunts are traditionally placed on the 0V side of the battery pack, even though functionally, they can go at any point in the load.
