I'm sure someone will go into more detail. I cannot english right now.

The gist of it is that you want to aim for a voltage drop of less than 3%. The guage of the wire is typically the only variable you can adjust. Larger gauge wire can send power further with less voltage drop. There is more explanations at the link.
