The cable that is used to connect from the generator is based on the size in kW's of the generator and the generator's breaker size rated in amps. It usually is a flexible cab-tire 4 wire cable if the generator is a portable type. If it is a stationary generator is has to be wired with a flexible conduit so as not to transmit vibration from the generator to the conduit system.
