I'd just identify in incoming pos and neg wires and use them. Mine are 14Ga white neg and white/blue is pos.. but use a voltmeter to be sure.

On my 315 the house panel is directly below the control panel at floor level. I fished a couple of wires down to the house panel and connected to the 12v bus and the ground bus. Gives converter charge voltage and if I switch the converter off, gives a good battery voltage reading.

Be aware that tapping a wire will result in a skewed reading if anything is drawing current through that wire. Voltage measuring devices should have a direct, dedicated run to the power source.

The difference between the meter I wired at the control panel and a direct reading at the battery was about .005 volts. Hardly worth running separate wiring all the way to the battery for a simple voltmeter.
