I reached out to my contact at Progressive Dynamics and he said on the RV Power Control Center # PD4560K18LS8 the battery terminal can accept a wire as large as 2 gauge, although he did say that this is a pretty tight fit. The most commonly used gauge for this application is a 4 gauge wire, which fits really nicely and is typically large enough for any battery.
