might get a tad warm and melt the insulation me thinks bud , But a cheaper way still ( for me it was ) get down the local scrappy and rob a Merc car ( battery in the boot ) main lead off it . just over 3 mtrs and thick as you like cost me £4 result .

so having a higher rated cable say 50mm2 800a aint neccesserily better?

nope - it is thicker and more difficult to feed thru and terminate.

How much is max currenlikely to be? add 50% and go for that.
