I'm in the UK. L3 is not a big thing her. L2 is the biggest and as far as I will go to give you some clue
 
My math say 503.75 feet or about 155 meters....So my guess is 75 meters.
And 15 pads using a common ground, or 8 separate pads....
Can I get cold beer? or just luke warm???
 
Minimum safe distance for a single L motor [2560-5120], which is largest a L-2 can fly is 300 ft or 91 meters.

Comlpex L... which is a cluster or staged rocket with total 2560- 5120 newtons = L would be 500 ft or 152 meters.

Sooo..... if you are flying to the max L-2 the above is what you need.

That is if you are flying by standard Tripoli regs, don't know what yours are on the other side of the pond.

UK is a mix. UKRA do what they want and all the others do a mix. My club tends to do NAR as do I personally https://www.nar.org/safety-information/high-power-rocket-safety-code/

I've 50 meters or 164 feet of 25 core.

This is the cable https://cpc.farnell.com/pro-power/7-2-25a/cable-def-stan-7-2-25a-100m/dp/CB15179

I've designed my system to have 12 outlets and some other features :)

I don't get it. NAR code is exactly the same as I stated, you say you personally follow that code.

50 m or 164 ft is not even close.

Are you flowing the "cleared" distance by chance? [125ft]

I personally don't care what you do.......that's your business, but I would just like clarification for your reasoning. Thanks.
