Artek Lynx Shim Plate Kit (Standard & with Class-T Fuse Holders)

Artek Lynx Shim Plate Kit – Victron Lynx DC Distribution Mount (Standard & Class-T Fuse Options)

The Artek Lynx Shim Plate Kit (Standard & with Class-T Fuse Holders) provides a clean and professional way to build a compact DC power distribution system using the Victron Lynx architecture.

Designed specifically for high-current installations, this kit allows the battery switch, shunt, and DC distribution components to bolt directly together using the precision-engineered Artek Shim Plate, while maintaining manufacturer warranties and installation best practices. The result is a cleaner, safer, and more reliable electrical system with fewer cables and lower resistance.

Ideal for van builds, marine systems, and off-grid power installations using Victron components.

Key Benefits

• Cleaner Installation
  Eliminates unnecessary jumper cables (or improvised bus bars) by allowing components to bolt directly together.
• Improved Electrical Efficiency
  Reduces wiring complexity, minimizes resistance across high-current connections, and improves overall system reliability.
• Faster Installation
  Installers can build a complete DC distribution hub in significantly less time.
• Professional System Layout
  Creates a compact, organized DC power center for high-amperage systems.
• Fully Compatible with Victron Lynx Systems
  Designed specifically to integrate with Victron Lynx DC distribution systems.

What the Shim Plate Does

The Artek Lynx Shim Plate aligns the following components onto a single mounting plane:

• Battery disconnect switch
• Battery shunt / monitor
• Victron Lynx DC distribution bus

This precision alignment allows the components to be bolted together directly, eliminating the need for jumper cables, custom bus bars, or improvised wiring connections. The result is a mechanically integrated DC power distribution assembly that improves reliability and serviceability.

System Components Included

Each kit includes the necessary components to assemble a complete DC distribution point built around the Lynx architecture. Depending on the configuration selected, the kit include:

Ideal Applications

This kit is commonly used in:

🚐 Van power systems
⛵ Marine electrical systems
🏕 Off-grid power installations
⚡ Victron-based battery systems

It is especially useful for high-current lithium battery systems where clean DC distribution and serviceability are critical.

Why Installers Prefer the Shim Plate System

Traditional DC distribution systems require multiple jumper cables and manual wiring between components. This often results in:

• messy installations
• increased resistance
• harder troubleshooting

The Artek Shim Plate replaces those connections with a mechanically aligned system, improving both electrical performance and installation quality.

Optional System Expansion

This kit includes one Lynx Distributor by default. 
If your installation requires additional DC circuits, a second Lynx Distributor can be added to expand the number of fused outputs.
