Do cable runs between each of four Victron 200ah smart batteries and a Lynx Distributor #1 (on left side of Lynx BMS) require 4/0 cable? Or would 2/0 be sufficient? I will be using 4/0 cable between the 3000 Multiplus II inverter/charger and the Lynx Distributor #2 on the right side of the Lynx BMS.
Size for current. As we have no idea of loads, we can't answer the question.
Max current draw of 225 amps, for short period. Usually much less.
Refrigerator 1.5 amp
Fan 2 amp
Lights 1.5 amp
Water pump 7.5 amp
12V AC 58 amp
Cooktop 140 amp
Microwave 80 amp
You can split the total load by 4 between the batteries.
Best cable for theoretical max.
Maybe AWG 3 or 2 to the lynx.
