ACS712 Current Sensor 5 Amps

Hi,

Wanted to start this project but before I fry anything I figured I would ask here first, since I am a newb.
If I want to measure current being drawn from a 24V power supply to my DC motor, do I need to place resistors inline with the ACS712 (5 Amps) or will it be ok? I've seen mixed information online and just wanted to see what the experts say.

Best,
Josh

A resistor is not needed or wanted to measure current with the ACS712.
