Boat lithium battery wiring diagram: 2 simple setups

Description

2 AWG tinned copper battery cable, cut to the length you order
665 fine strands (Type 3), so it bends around stringers and hatches
UL 1426 boat cable, 600 V, red jacket

This is the heavy cable for main battery runs: battery to switch, switch to busbar, or the feed to an inverter. Tinned strands hold off the green corrosion that eats bare copper in a damp bilge. Use red for positives and the black 1140 for the other side, and order each run as one piece. Whether 2 AWG is big enough depends on your amps and the round-trip length, so run the numbers in our wire gauge calculator first. Crimp it with lugs made for 2 AWG; our crimping guide shows how.

Good fit if: You’re running main positive cable: battery to switch, switch to busbar, or the inverter feed.

Not the pick if: The wire gauge calculator says your amps and round-trip length need a different size.
