Choosing the correct cable:
- The size of the battery does not determine the size of the cable required.
- You need to know approximately what current (amperage) your equipment is using.
- The equipment may have a specification plate showing amps or watts, if not, refer to the manufacture's specification or contact the manufacturer.
- If you know the wattage of the equipment, divide this by 12 (10 if using long lengths), this will give you the amperage.
- If you are replacing worn cables, measure the diameter including the insulation and compare it to our cable spec.
- If your calculations are marginal, choose the next size up cable.
