What Gauge wire are the battery leads for the Phoenix 24/1200?

I’m wanting to order a quick disconnecting connector sized for the battery leads. Don’t see info on size in data sheet or manual

The Multiplus Compact 24/1200 *should* be the same. 16mm2.

Thanks John! I’m guessing they did not include that table in the US manual since the wire sizes don’t easily convert. 16mm2 is about 5 AWG. They make #6 and #4 AWG pins for the Anderson connectors, so will order both and see which fits....

Turns out it came with clamp terminals rather than wires.
