Thread: What size cable??

I am installing dual battery system, I have USI-160 which I have positioned driver side wheel arch. I am running +cable approx 2 metres to aux battery. I am thinking 4B&S cable, is this heavy enough for length of run?? It will be set up to run winch only as per Traxide set up.

Hmm...interesting, Warn xd9000 came supplied with 4b&s, I think max draw is about 450 amps which in theory means supplied cables NBG, so why supply them?, The Traxide only handles 160amps which also shouldn't be enough but apparently is. Need to do more research I think.
