Hi all! Just been wondering if the size of power cable would make much of a difference in voltage/amps drop? I've got most of the bits for my generator now but no cable 'cos I don't have a clue (or much money!)! The cable would be about 15 meters from the house.

Thanks Jax

hi jax.
i use the yellow 110V cable, but look for the 2.5mm stuff if you can get it, the standard norm is only 1.5mm.
