    Tex,

    Are you taking some sort of test?

    What is the required voltage and amperage at the load?

    What type of insulation is on the cable?

    Is the cable copper or aluminium?

    Let's see, you know that you have a 240 V requirement, correct.

    You can determine the amperage from the information you have.

    Let me know if you need more help?
