My master relay is located approximately 5" from the plus terminal of my Concorde RG battery and the starter relay is next to the master. I'd like to substitute .090 copper strap from the battery plus terminal to master relay and from master relay to starter relay. 4AWG cable will then run from starter relay to the starter. I'm having no success converting 4AWG circular mils to an equivalent area for my copper strap, given that this copper strap is .090 thick. I'm guessing that 5/8 or 3/4 wide is probably overkill but would prefer not to guess!
