positive terminal
Battery's red contact
The positive terminal is the electrode in a battery or electrical device marked with a plus sign (+), where current conventionally flows out during discharge.
In a car battery, it's typically the larger post: Connect the jumper cables to the positive terminal first.
The positive terminal has higher electrical potential than the negative terminal.
