What determines battery cable size?
Hey all, I'm looking into replacing the factory battery cables in the spring to hopefully get more efficient (as in shorter) generator charging time. My question is, what do I "need to do" vs. what...

You must consider the length of the conductors and their resistance.
The positive would be copper with more resistance then a welded frame. The welded frame will have no voltage drop that you would need to consider into the calculations.
Blue Sea is most likely figuring a boat where both the positive and negative are using copper conductors.
