Harrison-Smith, J.L. Practical Water Power. 120pp., 1985. Published in New Zealand, but I bought it at MREA, Custer WI. Good calculations, photos, tables. $15.00.
Davis, Scott. Microhydro: Clean Power from Water. Canada: New Society Publishers, 160pp., 2003. ISBN 0-86571-484-3.$22.95. Good calculations, photos, tables. Describes example systems. I have a slight preference for Davis because of current edition.

Dear plughzz It appears very adequate, although there is no indication of the seasonal variations on flow, nor any idea of total height available. Turbomachinery can be purchased cost-effectively from Australian company Pelena (www.pelena.com.au), but you would need to measure flow and head. McGuigan wrote a clear book for amateurs on doing this. Forgotten the title. paul bryce [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >I am buying a 22 acre parcel in northern Ca, unfortunately the nearest >electricity is over a mile away.
