@kara.vanlife You would need to ask who ever designed your system. If you are designing it yourself, then you need to calculate the size the cables accordingly yourself. Victron have an app you can download to help select DC cable sizes but it is only a guide. There are lots of factors that affect the cable size, voltage, amps, distance of the cable.
