A typical RV plug to the truck is going to have 7 wires. They are typically either #12 or #14, rated at 20 and 15 amps, with some wires being smaller, say #16 for back up lights, or turn signals, rated at 10 amps. The "Ground" wire or return path is only #12 wire.
Other sources would indicate 10 gauge for both ground and charge line as "typical". I know my own local RV dealer uses this convention when adding brake controller wiring and a charge line to any vehicle not yet so equipped.
