It will be on a 24volt system so I expect that I'll only run it up to about 35volts (i.e. without a battery bank, just the genny on the PTO) where the full length will be dissipating 650watts (35^2 / 1.88).
For higher current tests where I want to load the genny to about 40amps at 28volts (max design charge current on a fully charged bank) the 1120watts will be spread over about a third (0.7 ohms for that load of course) of the wire length so I expect it will cook then - so long as the smoke isn't the magic variety that makes all the electrons go round I think I'll be OK...
