House battery cable size

My long battery cable on house batteries came "uncrimped". Jury rigged it to work, been fine due a month, but want to get a new one. Don't want to take it off to make sure wife happy while going to get new one!
What gauge is it? 2009 bus with six batteries. Extra long one so it can be slid out on the holder.
Thanks so much

Guage is typically stamped on the cable.

Possibly 3/0. A battery guy should be able to crimp a new end on it in place. It should be stamped on the cable insulation or the battery terminal itself.
