IMO sense wire is one of those feed-back things. Anyway, see the manual and all will be revealed! :) Yours in the Ford MH will be different from how I did it.
Mine will be different than almost all other motorhomes, because I went for twin charging paths. One is OEM modified with a 50 amp-circuit breaker (I kept blowing fuses), and the other is direct from the chassis battery, with a 50 amp circuit breaker. I also added manual switching to each isolation solenoid and upgraded the amperage so that burned contacts are not an issue.
When I had flooded batteries I did "see" as much as 70 amps of charge. When I moved to telecom jars I see little or no charging--in fact the power flow is to the chassis. I.E. almost no alternator charging at all. I did try to correct this by replacing the Chassis battery with an AGM, to no avail.
