Double-insulated battery cable

This double-insulated cable is both sturdy and highly flexible. The cable is also oil-resistant and is available in red and black.

Battery cables ‘transport’ the current to or from your inverter or battery charger. A correct choice is therefore important, as a wrong choice can result in significant power loss. To calculate the required cable thickness, divide the maximum continuous current by 3 and then choose the battery cable that is closest to this (never choose a thinner one!) Calculation example: A 12V/1600VA inverter has a continuous power of 1300W; at 12V, this is a current of 1300/12=109A. Divide this current by 3 = 36.3. The next available cable thickness above this is 50mm2. You can always use a thicker battery cable; this reduces the resistance in your electrical circuit. You can order our flexible battery cable by the metre.  All battery cables are oil- and acid-resistant.
