When a galvanometer of resistance G is shunted with a low resistance S, then the effective resistance R_(eff) of galvanometer becomes R_(eff)=(GS)/(G+S) If current is passed through such a galvanometer, then the major amount of current flows through shunt and the rest through galvanometer, i.e., the current divides itself in the inverse ratio of resistance.
