If you can come up with the terminal ends use Harbor Freight welding cable.

Hi Michael -

The thing with Rhode Island wiring is that what they would sell you is
something that would be very close to original, so usually their stuff is
good for concours restorations.

Best Regards,

Alan

Michael -

Definitely no need to get the Rhode Island cable then!  If there's one
person I'd listen to on this list it is Michael Salter.... harbour
freight it is!

Cheers,

My dad was so concerned about the 'remote' batteries in our BN2 that we 
used 00 ('double-ought') welding wire with soldered terminals (we had to 
use the blue wrench to get them hot enough to tin the wires and melt the 
solder 'plug' in the terminals). Low resistance, but not very flexible.

Mike--

There are good reasons to choose welding over battery cable and with little
or no compromising of reliability, conductivity or safety.
However there is none to justify using cheap and crappy terminals which
invite corrosion, increase electrical resistance and hasten the day when
your car will fail to start or worse.

Best--Michael Oritt

Shortly after buying my car in 1998 I replaced all cables (+ & -) running
from the battery with marine-grade tinned battery cables and soldered,
spiked and shrink-wrapped the plated terminals.  I have not had a problem
in 20 years.
If I were to do it again or replace I would probably use welding cable
simply because it is easier to route through the chassis apertures, and it
can handle more current since there is more copper as a result of the finer
and more numerous wires.

Best--Michael Oritt

Michael,

Any experience with the wire sold by British Wiring?  They sell it with 
and without the braid.

Cheers,
