One good source for all things home built is AC43-13. It is the repair - and by extension homebuilt - bible for most of what we do. There are tables of wire temp ranges, amp capability, and voltage drop. You will need the watt rating of each device and the total circuit footage of each to determine wire sizes.

Also, use top quality AMP connectors and durable wire markers at each end.
