Orion-Tr Smart wire size for terminals

I have a 25’ run from the alternator/vehicle battery to the Orion so I plan on using 4AWG wire. What is the recommended best practice for reducing the 4AWG wire to fir the terminals if the Orion?

I’ve found 4 to 8AWG reducing lugs but I’m concerned that their body size might not work with the closely spaced terminals on the Orion.

Another idea is to use a terminal post near the Orion to make a jumper wire of 6 or 8 AWG to fit into the Terminals.


Thanks for your thoughts on this!

I think your second idea would be best. I would use 6 ga wire jumper to terminal post.
