You can go to an electric supply store and ask what amp ratings each cable size has.
There are guides online for awg sizes to cm as well depending on what your local area use.
There will also be local laws and regulations on the size requirements. So it's best to start there.
When calculating, please use the “transfer switch” current rating from the Multiplus II 5000 data sheet for all AC cables.
Blue Sea (www.bluesea.com) has some good tools to calculate wire sizes. Victron also has a very good guide. https://www.victronenergy.com/upload/documents/Wiring-Unlimited-EN.pdf
