I would recommend a copy of Ugly's Reference Book
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0962322962/002-6271790-2441624?v=glance
It should answer most of your electrical questions....

Same thing I thought when reading this one. I thought all those guys had an
NEC handbook and an Ugly's reference at least!

Not quite. The application of heat transfer to voltage drop allows the
calculation of the conductor temperature that gives a more accurate voltage
drop. Ugly's does not have a single line about calculating amperes using
heat transfer.

I figured if he didn't have a grasp on things, Ugly's would be a good
reference....You already left the equation.....
