Battery cable length
The table below shows the battery cable length from the negative terminal of the battery cable to the
rigging grommet.
The positive battery cable is 100 mm (3.9 in) longer than the negative battery cable.
Extension length recommendation for battery cable
Do not exceed the recommended extension length for the battery cable. Otherwise, the electri-
cal system could be damaged or operate improperly.
To extend the length of battery cables, follow the requirements in the tables for battery capacity, cable
size, and ambient temperature.
The maximum total extension length is the total combined length of the positive and negative battery
cables.
Select an extension battery cable and terminal that meet ABYC requirements or the equivalent.
Select the battery stud that is best-suited to the terminal size.
Solder the cable and terminal connections to prevent them from corroding.
