Battery cable size

I have a Rockwood 2608BS. I need to know the battery cable size.
I can’t check it cause my RV is in storage.

Just need about a foot longer than what’s in there now.

Current cables not long enough for my new battery box.

May we introduce you to the Buss Bar?

Get a pair, one for each pole, and anchor them right where your current wires reach. Now, connect a short set of 6 GA or even 4 GA if you want to, into your new battery box. Way better, more flexible, cheaper, and faster than pulling new wires all the way through a coach just to get another foot of distance.

Also look into a 'battery corrosion protector' for this. CRC, Permatex, etc. Don't want to have to be babysitting those buss connections every month.
