[FlyRotary] Re: Wire size
I think that's a broadcast item. At the least I want a copy.
Thanks Al

I have an Excel spreadsheet (Mil-W-5088L, Ver. 3) in which you list devices, current requirement, length of wire, bundled or unbundled, continuous or intermittent; and it will immediately tell you what wire size is appropriate. I'd be happy to e-mail direct to you or anyone who needs it.

[FlyRotary] Re: What size II.
Oops, wrong chart. Well, it was the right chart, but not the chart
that had the maximum run length info. It's from a page I got from
the Nuckolls site, but I can't figure out where, so I'll just attach it.
It's only a two page file.
The first chart came out of AEC Chapter 8 - which has also has
a graph illustrating the relationships for 5, 10, & 30 degree temp
rises (page 10).

Sorry this took me so long to find, but I knew
that I had seen a chart that shows a relationship
among current, wire size, run length, and
temperature rise. Sure enough, it was in Bob
Nuckolls's AEC. It's on a one page PDF file at:
http://www.aeroelectric.com/articles.html
click on the fifth entry, "pdf wire size chart".
That at least leaves only the acceptable voltage
drop as an unknown variable.
