Hello Leon,

This one requires a bit of deduction. The basic strategy is to use the load current to determine the current and final voltage drops (assume the load current is constant). Once you have that, you can determine the initial and target cable resistances. With this, you can calculate the required parallel cable resistance to achieve the target cable resistance.

Please see my worked example.

Thanks

Bart
