I reached out to my contact at Progressive Dynamics and he said that the DC terminals on the RV Power Control Center # PD4560K18LS8 will work well with up to 12 gauge wiring. The terminals themselves are rated for a max of 20 amps DC, which is typically what 12 gauge wiring is used for so there isn't a need to use a thicker gauge.
I have attached a short video review on this system that you can check out as well.
