WHICH is why I detailed in the VERY beginning on this thread how to make
the longer cable using 4AWG (or larger if desired). The ONLY place the
cable would not be the larger gauge would be in the crimp terminal...
IF anyone is interested, I will repost what I wrote.... or just email
me offline.

Elecraft was my first experience with power pole connectors and I have
purchased custom cables from Powerwerx. They did a nice job, eventually I
purchased a crimper and connectors and made cables myself. If you are
making the KPA1500 cable longer than the factory cable it is probably
desirable to use a larger diameter. The factor may not be able to
accommodate this since the 75 amp connector is made for 6 awg max.

Mike,
I went directly to Elecraft with my question. The answer is 6g.
I was told to be sure to use the correct crimp tool for the job. If I
make the cable I'll probably just have Powerwerx handle it as they have
the correct hydraulic tool for the job.
