The size or gauge of a jumper cable refers to the width of its wiring. Jumper cables with small gauge ratings are thicker in diameter and allow more current/amperage to pass through. Thin jumper cables, on the other hand, allow less amperage to pass through and take longer to charge a dead battery.
A longer pair of cables will allow you to park the charging car in a more convenient location. When the cars are facing each other, a set of 10-foot jumper wires should suffice, although this isn’t always possible. If you want the charging car to park behind the stopped one, you’ll need at least 20 feet of wire.
The choice between booster cables and regular jumper wires should be guided by the specific requirements of the vehicles involved as well as the context of the application. Failure to use the right type may compromise safety during jump-starting procedures while at the same time affecting their efficiency too.
Caution: Always use safety glasses when working around car batteries. Using the appropriate jumper cable gauge ensures that your battery receives the power it requires to start. The gauge defines the thickness of the wires. This will be indicated by a gauge value ranging from 1 to 12.

Some 16A charging l eads carry 2.5mm^2 cable, which I think is on the riskier side of overheating under continuous load, so avoid for a permanent installation. The thickness of the assembly will depend on whether you need armoured cable or not.
