Low gauge cable for small inverter?

Yes. they are used for AC, Alternating Current. Very common. But i would discourage use in DC, mobile applications. Hey., but it is YOUR van not someone else.

Or.... If one doesn't like the question, one doesn't need to respond. :dodgy:   Thanks to those who took the time to respond with helpful posts.

The surge power on my 600 Watt inverter is 1200 Watts. Guess I'll go with a 2 or 4 gauge wire. I guess the breaker fuse will be 120?

If you are asking us to look the answer up for you, this data point is required:

get a piece of string and measure as precisely as possible the actual distance.

Ideally the inverter is very close to the bank.
