Off-Grid Power Essentials Series Wiring Kit (Single Inverter)

The Off-Grid Power Essentials Bundle Wiring Kit provides the primary DC wiring, lugs, and heat shrink needed to connect the Victron components included in the Essentials Core Power Bundle according to the complete wiring instructions supplied with your Off-Grid Power System.

This kit is intended for the interconnections between core system components such as the Victron Lynx Power In, Lynx Distributor, Cerbo GX MK2, GX Touch, and MultiPlus-II inverter/charger. It gives you the properly sized cable and termination materials needed to complete these connections without having to source individual wire, lugs, and heat shrink separately.

Battery interconnect wiring is not included. Wiring between the battery bank and the core power system is supplied separately through the appropriate Battery Wiring Kit selected for your battery configuration.

What's Included

• 18 ft. of 1/0 AWG Black DC Wire
• 6 ft. of 4 AWG DC Wire
• 8 × 5/16" 1/0 AWG Copper Lugs
• 4 × 3/8" 1/0 AWG Copper Lugs
• 4 × 5/16" 4 AWG Copper Lugs
• 1 ft. of 3/4" Red Adhesive-Lined Heat Shrink
• 1 ft. of 3/4" Black Adhesive-Lined Heat Shrink

Wire quantities are measured in linear feet. Heat-shrink quantities are supplied as 12-inch sections. AC wiring is not included with this specific kit.

High-Quality, Multi-Rated Copper Cable

The cable included in this kit is full-AWG, pure OFC copper cable made in the USA and selected for demanding mobile, marine, RV, solar, and inverter applications. Unlike lower-cost copper-clad aluminum wire, the full copper conductor delivers excellent conductivity while its Class K flexible construction makes routing and installation easier.

The cable carries multiple ratings and approvals, including UL MTW, UL1426 BC5-W2 marine cable, UL THW building wire, UL AWM, and SAE automotive battery cable ratings. It is rated for wet and dry environments, features a durable PVC jacket resistant to oil, water, chemicals, abrasion, and sunlight, and carries a UL VW-1 flame-resistance rating. Depending on its applicable rating, the cable is rated for applications up to 600V or 1000V.

Tin-Plated Pure Copper Lugs

The included heavy-duty lugs are manufactured from pure copper and tin plated for added corrosion resistance. Their seamless construction, flared barrel, and chamfered opening make them well suited for the flexible stranded cable used throughout the power system.

The lugs are UL Listed/CSA Certified and can be crimped or soldered. The 5/16" lug holes are also compatible with M8 hardware, while the 3/8" lug holes are compatible with M10 hardware.

Adhesive-Lined Dual-Wall Heat Shrink

The included red and black heat shrink uses a 3:1 shrink ratio dual-wall construction with a flame-retardant cross-linked polyolefin exterior and hot-melt adhesive interior. When properly heated, the tubing shrinks tightly around the connection while the adhesive flows around the underlying surface. Once cooled, it forms a durable, flexible, and water-resistant seal around the termination.

Designed for the Off-Grid Power Configurator

While this wiring kit can be purchased separately, it was designed primarily as part of the MobileMustHave Off-Grid Power System. Our Power Configurator automatically selects the appropriate wiring kits and supporting components based on the power system, batteries, charging options, and other modules you choose.
