Benefits Of Marine Battery Cable

No one wants to go out on their boat and have to worry about whether or not they may need to stop and tend to their boat by the end of the day. That’s why you buy the best quality products to keep your boat running smoothly, right? Well that’s no different with marine battery cables. When you invest in a proper cable for your boat, you know that you will have a safer and more durable ride. Marine battery cables are designed to withstand the harsh marine environment; you can’t use just any type of cables for your boat. The right marine battery cable needs to be able to handle the power output of your boat, as well as stand up to the weather conditions, be flexible to handle how your boat moves, and durable to stand up to the corrosion from water and gasoline that could get into the machine.

Advantages of the 2/0 Marine Battery Cable

Our 2/0 American Wire Gauge marine battery cable can be relied upon for all of your most critical marine applications. It is full size with over 1000 strands of 99.4% pure tinned copper. The 2/0 marine battery cable is particularly effective in water (and especially salt water) because each strand of the cable is tinned, which makes it even more effective in reducing corrosion from water, salt, and a host of other substances. The 2/0 marine battery cable is insulated with an exceptionally durable PVC jacket that is rated with 600 volts to ensure maximum usage. And the PVC jacket is formulated specially for the 2/0 marine battery cable to make sure that it remains flexible in hot or cold temperatures, and is resistant to flame, oil, and gasoline. Our marine battery cables are made with you and your boat’s safety in mind; the battery cables you have needed to be able withstand whatever harsh conditions you experience. That’s why our 2/0 marine battery cable will be able to withstand all the typical working conditions, such as high temperatures, vibration, jarring or bouncing, and potentially corrosive substances like water and gasoline.

Common Questions About Security and Alarm Cables, Answered

Not sure which type of security or alarm cable your facility or system needs? Hopefully, these answers to common questions can help! What cable is used for alarm systems? Security and alarm systems are usually wired with small-gauge wire specifically designed for the purpose. For instance, many security systems are wired with 12 and 18 AWG gauge alarm wire, as these low-voltage applications do not necessarily require larger, heavier wires. However, larger or wire gauges may be required depending on the circumstances. Also, there are some unique requirements for some systems. For instance, fire alarm cables must be made with specific insulation that is heat resistant and which does not produce toxic smoke when burned. What gauge cable do you need for alarm systems? Only your specific system requirements can answer that question, but often large wire gauges (that is, smaller wires) are used as security and alarm cables because of the low-voltage, low-current application. What is ...

Do you own a boat? Are you a member of a ship’s crew? Are you a ship’s mechanic or an electrician by trade? If you answer yes to any of these questions, you will at some point or other come across marine electrical wire in the course of your career. Something important you’ll need to keep in mind is that marine electrical cable and wire is not the same as standard building wire; nor is it the same as automotive battery wire. Here are the two big defining traits. Marine Electrical Wire Is Highly Flexible If there’s one thing you need to know about marine electrical wire (also sometimes called marine battery cable or marine battery wire) it’s that it’s highly flexible. This is accomplished by making these conductors out of very high strand counts of very thin conductors. Typically, marine battery wire conductors are made from pure, 100% copper and each conductor is very thin. Doing so makes the cable very flexible. Why is this necessary? Well, ...
