14 FC FB Wire Size

Unit is a 2014 23' Flying Cloud forward bedroom. I am not able to look at my unit wondering if someone could check this out for me.
I need to know the size of the main battery cables, I seem to remember that they are about a #6 or#4 AWG.
Thanks!
J.B.

I remove these cables on a regular basis when I install solar charging systems with new AGM or lithium batteries.

Airstream generally uses 6 AWG cables from the batteries to the bus bars and then back to the DC fuse panel and converter.

If you have the factory WFCO inverter, there will be a second set of cables from the batteries to the inverter that are generally 4AWG.
