My 99 MH has a " key on " hot wire to a solenoid, that connects the engine battery to the house battery. That way, it charges the house battery, only when engine is running. The solenoid has battery cables to each battery.
Some older MHs may have had diode isolators. They were installed in the output wire, comming from the alternator and split the charging to both batteries. They would use 10 or 8 gauge wire.
That's the 2 types of systems used back then.
