Hi Wendell,
You must be using OpenOffice. I had the same problem. Al is using
some look up tables that didn't seem to translate quite right. I
haven't had a chance to look into it. This is the first Excel
spreadsheet I've seen in a long time that didn't open properly in OO,
and some of them were pretty complex.

Thanks Al,
I tried using it but with my spread sheet program it gives err.504 in the calculation.
Guess I need to buy a good program.

I'll attach it here and wee if it goes through for everyone. Some virus filters take these out.

I think that's a broadcast item. At the least I want a copy.

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.

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).

click on the fifth entry, "pdf wire size chart".
That at least leaves only the acceptable voltage drop as an unknown variable.
