Sea Dog 1/0 AWG Tinned Copper Battery Cable, Yellow, 100 ft Spool
Sea Dog 1/0 AWG Tinned Copper Battery Cable, Yellow, 100 ft Spool — Product description
Sea Dog's 1/0 AWG battery cable gives you a heavy-gauge, tinned copper run for high-current marine DC work. It comes on a 100 foot spool in yellow, marked for negative, and it's built to UL and ABYC standards so it holds up to salt, vibration, and years on the water.
When you're wiring a battery bank, an inverter, a windlass, or a bow thruster, you need cable that can move real current without heating up. This is Sea Dog's 1/0 AWG battery cable, and it's sized for exactly that kind of high-draw run.
The conductor is tinned copper, not bare. That matters on a boat. Bare copper corrodes and turns green where moisture and salt air get to it, and corroded strands lose conductivity. Tinning coats every strand, so the cable stays bright and keeps carrying full current for years. It's the difference between wiring you do once and wiring you redo.
You get 100 feet on a spool, in yellow, marked for the negative side of your DC system. It's built to UL and ABYC standards, so it meets the marine electrical codes your surveyor and insurer care about. Cut what you need, crimp on your lugs, and you're set. Good for main battery leads, ground runs, and any heavy-gauge job where you don't want to compromise.

Frequently asked questions
What is 1/0 AWG cable used for?
It's a heavy-gauge battery cable for high-current DC runs: main battery leads, inverters, windlasses, bow thrusters, and ground connections. The larger the load and the longer the run, the heavier the gauge you want, and 1/0 handles serious current.
Why tinned copper instead of bare copper?
Tinning coats each copper strand so salt air and moisture can't corrode it. Bare copper goes green and loses conductivity over time. On a boat, tinned cable is the standard for wiring that lasts.
Why is this cable yellow?
Yellow marks it as the negative conductor in a marine DC system. Keeping positive and negative runs in separate colors makes troubleshooting and inspection a lot easier down the road.
Is this cable UL and ABYC certified?
Yes. It's built to UL and ABYC standards, so it meets the marine electrical codes that surveyors and insurers look for.
How much cable do I get?
Each spool holds 100 feet. Cut what you need for each run and crimp on your own lugs.
