All GT Cables have a max Voltage, max Amperage and a Loss:
 * Cables that get packets higher than their maximum Voltage will catch fire and melt.
 * Cables that have more Amperes travelling through them than their maximum Amperage limit will catch fire and melt. Do note that packets can rebound. Even if the logical path that a packet dictates that EU should not travel in that direction, you should not take for granted that your cables will not have some stray EU packets travelling through them.
 * The loss of a cable is per Block a EU package travels. For example a 32V package is sent trough a Tin Cable which has a loss of 1EU per block to a machine 8 blocks away. After 8 blocks of cables the 32V Package is down to 24V when it arrives at the machine. Should the machine need for example 30EU/t to operate. A second package sent in the same tick is needed every 4 Ticks. Thus a 2A supply is needed for the machine with this setup. Cable losses are applied to each EU Package, netting you a 2x power loss.
