Also I wanted to ask another question. My Converter/Charger was a major PITA to get out of my Motorhome. They had it packed into an area so tight you couldn't hardly get to the screws to remove it. There's plenty of room in the compartment to relocate it but the 4awg wire coming from the batteries to the converter/charger are way to short. To be honest I'm not sure I can even get it back in because there's no room to work in there. Can I just wire nut on some 4awg wire extensions and make it so its serviceable? I'd need to extend the wires probably a foot.
Adding on to the wires is fine.
I'd probably use some type of butt splice, crimp connector as opposed to wire nuts on that size of wire. #4 is pretty big for a wire nut.
How much trouble would it be to just replace the entire length of wire? Remove the original, go to an auto parts store & get one long enough with the ends already crimped on.
