[QUOTE="littlefish, post: 1037347, member: 30192"] Yes, marine supply stores have lots of good wire to use for this application. You need 10ga from the battery to the fuse block for a 30a service, 12 ga will get you 20a and 14ga will get you 15a back in the back. You protect this service wire run with an inline fuse on the hot lead. Match the fuse holder and fuse size with the size of the wire you run. FWIW, I ran 12 ga wire for a 20a service. You will also need some correct wire size ring terminals with holes to match the bolt size on the battery terminal and then on the other end attaching to the fuse block. You want to crimp these or crimp and solder. Just don't solder only because heat alone can cause the connections to come lose. If you're not sure what I'm talking about, have the marine supply store make them for you! [/QUOTE]
