This is a Leistungsbeschreibung for a contract between two telecommunications companies. The sentence is:
Diese [Dämpfung] ergibt sich aus der Entfernung der Endkundenlokation zum zugehörigen Hauptverteiler der DTAG sowie dem *Adernquerschnitt* der jeweiligen TAL (Teilnehmeranschlussleitung).
It could also be "Aderquerschnitt" without the "n". So far I have "mains cross-section", but it seems to me "querschnitt" should be something else, perhaps "intersection"? Any suggestions or links to diagrams?
BEnglish, please. TIA

Cable cross-section area
The "area" is all that's missing.
Resistances etc. of electric cables depend on the cross-section area of a cable by something known as the "inverse square law".
Doubling a cable's cross-section reduces its resistance by 4.
