To calculate this you would take the area of each strand and add it together. This area, in square mm, then determines gauge. Diameter is not as critical with stranded wire, this is due to the tiny air gaps between each strand. Diameter may fluctuate with strand size and how tightly wound the rope of the cable is. The smaller the number, the larger the wire, until you reach zero or aught (0 or 1/0). From zero, you then have double aught (00 or 2/0), three aught (000 or 3/0) ... Based on AWG, this cable is just under 2/0 spec based on area. It therefore still falls within the 1/0 spec range Copper is the best conductor, Oversized CCA is the best value. By Increasing the conductor size, we can offset the conductivity differences while maintaining a lower price. Always follow the manufacturer&#039;s max rating on battery cable. Excessive loads will cause more distortion in amplifiers, create more heat, and will shorten the life of your electronics Proper termination is crucial, poor connections will create poor performance. CCA is not recommended for Marine or UTV applications.
