I believe you are referring to the Pollak 6-Pole Trailer Wiring Socket - Vehicle End # PK11609. If you are asking about a different product please just let me know.

This particular socket is designed to handle up to 12 gauge wire, but the most commonly used size wold be the slightly smaller 14 gauge that's found inside the Jacketed 6-Wire # DW04906-1, which is sold by the foot. I have attached a couple short video reviews below that you might also find helpful.
