From the battery power terminal strip documentation:

Maximum Wire Size and Max Quantity Allowed per 1492-J16xx Terminal

1 - #6 or
1 - #8 or
2 - #10 or
3 - #12 or
4 - #14 or
4 - #16

Don't mess up, the technical inspectors will no doubt be checking.

Also, you want to arrange the wiring to minimize the amount
of current that a given leg of the "jumper" will be carrying.

Have fun,
