*Ampacities of 600V and 1000V 105°C AWM wires in air. Ampacities based on single conductor in free air, 30°C or 40°C ambient temperature as specified, 105°C conductor temperature, per NEC table 310-17 (adjusted for 105°C). Free air ratings assume a one-cable-diameter space between adjacent conductors.

ARCTIC ULTRAFLEX 4/0 BLUE
ARCTIC ULTRAFLEX 4/0 BLUE is my go to. We use this conductor for all of our stationary and mobile designs that use a Victron Energy Multi-Plus or Quattro. Inverter/Chargers. It is a joy to work with from a flexibility standpoint. Keeping all the conductors Blue and identifying the ends with the applicable color of heat shrink makes for a professional looking install.
