Isn't the voltage drop only dependent on the resistance of the cable? and thus dependent on the length?

Have the cables different lengths?
Voltage, current and resistance are all related.

To get the Voltage(V) drop you need current(I) multiplied by resistance(R).
Increase the current or the resistance and the voltage increases.
