Battery cables

What are battery cables used for?

Connected to the electrical components (alternator, starter) that make up your motorized vehicle (car, motorcycle, etc.), the cables ensure the transmission of electricity from the battery. They therefore allow to supply the engine with enough electricity to allow it to start.

How to use battery cables?

The battery cables  offered by AutoTruck42 have different uses:

• to replace your battery cables which, over time, can deteriorate.
• to start a vehicle  with a flat battery. All you need to do is add crocodile clips to the ends and connect them either to the battery terminals of another vehicle or to a booster.
• to connect a second battery: during your campervan trips, for example, you can use it to operate items (household appliances, charging your mobile phones, etc.) that require electricity.
• The battery  is an essential part for starting your vehicle. Whether it is a car, a boat, a heavy goods vehicle or even a camper van, the battery is what supplies your engine with electricity. To be able to do its job, the battery needs cables to redistribute its energy.

How to choose the right battery cable?

To choose the right cable  based on your needs, here are the elements to take into consideration:

• the diameter of the cable  must be adapted to the power of the battery to which it will be connected: the more powerful the battery, the larger the diameter must be.
• the length of the cable must be proportional to the desired use.
