A reader recently wrote in with a question about the April 2008 issue Code Quandaries department, pointing out a possible error in the calculations for sizing the 90C conductor ampacity. Per the author, there was an inadvertent error in the text. Right above Step 4 on page 46, the number 420A in the calculation should have been 475A. This error did not affect the final answer.
