I’m with Hawk on this one regarding high resistance in connection. The ends of heavy cables on boats tend to get internal corrosion in the copper wires. When this happens they have very high resistance.
Cut the ends off of you cables. I bet that the copper wires are are all corroded/oxidized black. When this happens they will carry little current. |
