The choice of the electric cable depends on the allowable current of the cable
and the distance between the load and the generator. And the cable section
should be big enough.
If the current in the cable is bigger than the allowable current, it will become over
hot and the cable will be burnt. If the cable is long and thin, the input voltage of
the electric appliance will be not enough, causing that the generator doesn't start.
In the following formula, you can calculate the value of the potential "e".
The relations among of the allowable current, and length, section of the Insulating
cable (single core, multi-core) are as follow:
(Presume that the use voltage is 220V and the potential is below 10V.

Electrical equipment (including electrical lines and plugs connection) could not be
defective. By the effect of mechanical stress, make sure to use the rubber sheathed
flexible cable or analog.
Limit length of electric line when using the extension line or distributed network is: less
than 60m for cables of 1.5mm2, and less than 100m for cables of 2.5mm2
