I assume you are asking about an inverter that uses a 12V battery to supply 120VAC. If so, depending on the efficiency of your inverter, the battery current will be around 130 to 140 amps at full load. For that current, the smallest cable you would want to use is 2/0 (two-ought). If your cable length is over 5 or 6 feet you would want even larger cable, perhaps 4/0 to minimize voltage drop. Make or have made the proper crimp lug terminations at each end of the cable. Do not scrimp here! Improperly made connections will generate heat, and could ruin the equipment or even start a fire. If the wiring runs through a vehicle chassis, then be sure to install a fuse at the battery! If cables this size were to wear through on a sharp metal edge and short together, there will be more than enough heat generated to start a fire. Be safe!

How many amps would A elec fireplace that is 1500 watts draw?
By the definition of power which is (p)=IV, if a 1500 watt Electric Fireplace is plugged in a 220v AC source, the expected current will be (I)=P/v. ie 1500/220=6.8A This is when the power loss due to cable resistance is neglected.
Where are oxygen sensors on a 1996 Ram 1500?
The upstream is screwed into the front of the catalytic converter, while the downstream is screwed into the pipe after the converter.
Your Chevy 1500 4x4 has no power why?
might have a clogged catalytic converter. does your convertor get red hot? and if so then your may convertor may have melted the inside. This is not that uncommon and it will cause the truck to be doggy and no power. Check this and see what you fond.
