Wiring up a Zig Marque 1 Panel help please

Hi Folks,

I've just bought a Zig Marque 1 control panel for my Caravelle, but I'm not too sure on wiring it to the Leisure battery.

There are two terminlas on the back the rocker switch, one of which I believe connects to the main starter battery and the other to the leisure battery, which in turn give battery status depending on which battery is selected on the switch.

I'm already aware I need to run a 30amp fused supply from the leisure battery to the panel (or at least I think thats correct) and a fused supply from the starter battery, but not sure on the size of wire to use. The wire already fitted to the panel is 2mm. Do I use 2mm from the leisure battery to the panel? Or something a bit more chunky? And does the white wire marked 'negative' connect to the negative terminal on the leisure battery?

One last question if I may be so cheeky. There are two terminals on each of the fused switches. Is it case of positve to one, negative to the other for my lights, pump, aux, or does the white negative wire provide a negative connection for all three switches?

Any help or advice always appreciated :ok
