-If there is any current flowing, the connector will spark when tapped on the battery.
If juice is flowing, now find which branch:
1). Isolate the alternator by disconnecting it from the red positive cable. The battery is disconnected when doing this of course.
2). Isolate other branches such as radio, alarm, other by pulling respective fuses.
3). When something is disconnected and amp flow drops to zero, or near, you've found the problem.

can you do this by removing branch fuses from the fuse box?
