    It's not as simple as that. What is the connected load going to be, how much amperage and voltage do you need at the connection end?

    What kind of cable are you going to use, Copper or Aluminium? Above or below ground? In conduit or open? How many conductors in the cable? What is the ambient temperature?

    FYI - at about 50' (-/+) you will start to see some voltage drop.
