OP said 24v ie low voltage and thus high amperage for the same
power. High amps means lots of copper, means bigger cable.


Except that a pump will be very low power.

Not many amps!


One of the Hoselock 24v jobbies is 30W so thats 1.25A if your trying
to get anything ressembling 24v at the far end of say 10m of cable at
that current you need a reasonable amount of copper in the cable.
