An inverter connected to a battery will have a current draw associated with its operation and it is important that the cable supplying power to these is capable of carrying the normally expected current, plus a margin of safety. If it is not capable then it is likely to result in the cable becoming hot and potentially becoming dangerous. Although fuses are optionally used in the cable to protect the battery, the cable itself should be of an adequate rating to prevent this over-heating occurring under normal circumstances.
As a general rule, the smaller the diameter of the wire the higher the resistance and thus lower current capability over a given length. It is always OK to use a larger gauge cable.
When in doubt about the load, go up a gauge. The smaller the gauge number the thicker the cable, for example, 4 gauge cable is thinner than 1 gauge cable. Other factors can affect the capacity of wire besides the length, and this includes if it is in a hot environment, duration of load, type of load etc.
All cables have resistance, which means that there will be energy loss in the form of voltage drop experienced along the length of the cable.In low voltage systems cable length can have a significant impact on voltage drop. Even a cable run of 10 feet for small appliances can produce significant voltage drops and this problem is demonstrated well on some vehicles where the headlights are not as bright as they could be. If you check the voltage at the bulb connectors you might find that the bulbs are not receiving a full 12 Volts from the battery due to the wire size being too small for the cable run length.
Some owners opt to maximize their inverters ability by using cable with a larger gauge over a shorter distance which allows the circuit to provide the fullest supply of voltage and amperage to the inverter.
These cables are not just for inverters, they can be used for most automotive electrical applications.
The Power Bright 2AWG6, Power Cables for Inverter, 2 Gauge 6 Foot are high-quality cables designed specifically for use with power inverters. These professional series battery cables are the perfect choice for ensuring a reliable power supply to your inverter.
Featuring 2 AWG gauge, these cables are capable of handling high amperage, making them suitable for heavy-duty applications. The cables are also ultra-flexible, allowing for easy installation and maneuverability. This flexibility eliminates the hassle of dealing with stiff and rigid cables.
Equipped with 24K gold plated ring type connectors, the Power Bright 2AWG6 cables provide excellent conductivity and a secure connection. The gold plating ensures a corrosion-resistant and reliable connection, ensuring optimal power transfer between your battery and inverter.
The cables are made from OFHC (Oxygen-Free High Conductivity) power cable, ensuring maximum efficiency and minimal power loss. With a high temperature and chemical-resistant rating of 105ºC, these cables can withstand demanding environments and offer long-lasting performance.
One unique feature of these cables is their non-gripping jacket. This jacket design prevents the cables from sticking to other objects or surfaces, making them easier to handle and preventing any potential accidents.
These Power Bright cables are not only suitable for inverters but can also be used for various automotive electrical applications. Whether you need to power appliances, tools, or other devices in your vehicle, these cables provide a reliable and efficient power connection.
It is important to note that cable size and length can significantly impact voltage drop. Using a cable with a larger gauge reduces resistance and ensures a fuller supply of voltage and amperage to your inverter. Therefore, it is always advisable to choose a larger gauge cable if in doubt about the load.
In conclusion, the Power Bright 2AWG6, Power Cables for Inverter, 2 Gauge 6 Foot are the ideal choice for anyone seeking high-quality, high amperage, and ultra-flexible cables for their power inverter. These cables offer optimal power transfer, durability, and ease of installation, making them a reliable solution for all your power needs.
