[email protected] Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 I'm planning a build for the winter and I wanted to have a really strong electrical system. I ran across some decently priced 4/0 welding cable online in a assortment of colors and my real question is if any will there be a difference between regular 1/0 power cable and 4/0 welding. I know the wedding cable will hold and transfer more power but I'm wondering if I should go the cheaper route and get a high grade 1/0 and get the same electrical performance. I'm new to this but I study and I'm thinking the 4/0 welding is the best route but I just want a second or third opinion on weather or not it's with it.
