[QUOTE="knukonceptz, post: 1730516, member: 548221"] Current handling of power wire is based on length - 3ft of 4 gauge could handle 200A, try that at 20ft and you will have a problem. 120A at 17ft causes a loss of 10% which is the most I consider within the norm. However, your amps will not draw full power 100% of the time, but during those peaks you will have a greater loss....Just something to think about. [/QUOTE]
