Identify this device please

Please help me identify this device. It is near my batteries, and has very thick cables connected to it.

Re: Identify this device please

Thank you for that. What threw me is the smaller wire coming out of it with a 30a fuse on it. Still not sure what that is about. If anyone knows, would love to know more about it.

That’s an automatic combine relay.

The wire with the 30 amp fuse is the ground.

The unused terminal on the top is for a status light, the unused terminal on the bottom (I believe) is for a manual battery parallel switch.
