Wire size for Magnetic Potential
Wire size for Magnetic Potential
(OP)
Does anyone know of a reference which describes the amount of magnetic force that can be obtained from a wire related to the gauge of wire and amount of current/voltage passing through it?

This cuts the current in half. Half the current through twice the number of turns equals the same number of amp turns.
This relationship is well to keep in mind when doing "cut and try" calculations for magnet coils.
Of course, on AC twice the number of turns means 4 times the inductance and the calculations get a little more interesting.
