Explain using your own figure, the application of Ayrton shunt in an ammeter circuit reflects to the sensitivity of a meter movement
Since the maximum current flows through the dc meter in position 3, the sensitivity of the meter will also be more.
If you require least sensitivity, then the position should be turned to 1 by using the switch.
Hope this helps.
