This should be possible without live tails floating about - you want to
have fuse holders mounted on or in the battery box, then you can remove the
fuse and disconnect the cable from the car side.

If it hasn't been done in that way, then see if you can get access to the
pack and remove some cell links to accomplish the same thing.

Failing that, yes, you're falling back to putting a rubber boot (bike inner
tube works well) on the end of the cable and cable tying it in place.
Anything that can fall off or rub through easily is going to do that at the
worst time possible.

Happy new year from Scotland!
