  2. IEC 60228 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_60228

    Comparison of SWG (red), AWG (blue) and IEC 60228 (black) wire gauge sizes from 0.03 to 200 mm² to scale on a 1 mm grid – in the SVG file, hover over a size to highlight it. In engineering applications, it is often most convenient to describe a wire in terms of its cross-section area, rather than its diameter, because the cross section is directly proportional to its strength and weight ...

  3. Ampacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampacity

    For example, the United States National Electrical Code, Table 310.15(B)(16), specifies that up to three 8 AWG copper wires having a common insulating material (THWN) in a raceway, cable, or direct burial has an ampacity of 50 A when the ambient air is 30 °C, the conductor surface temperature allowed to be 75 °C. A single insulated conductor ...

  4. American wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_wire_gauge

    However, AWG is dissimilar to IEC 60228, the metric wire-size standard used in most parts of the world, based directly on the wire cross-section area (in square millimetres, mm 2). The AWG tables are for a single, solid and round conductor. The AWG of a stranded wire is determined by the cross-sectional area of the equivalent solid conductor.

  5. SY control cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SY_control_cable

    SY cable should not be used on voltages above ELV in the UK as the braid does not meet BS 7671 for current carrying capacity under fault conditions. Only cables mentioned in BS 7671 should be used unless the designer can show that the cable used meets the same standards.

  6. Tri-rated cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tri-rated_cable

    BS 6231 is a British Standard, last revised in 2006 by the BSI Group. [4] This standard specifies the performance and construction requirements of electrical cables that are single core, non-sheathed, PVC-insulated and rated 600/1000 V. Wire meeting the requirements of type CK of this standard is used as tri-rated wire.

  7. Electrical conductor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_conductor

    The main grade of copper used for electrical applications, such as building wire, motor windings, cables and busbars, is electrolytic-tough pitch (ETP) copper (CW004A or ASTM designation C100140). If high conductivity copper must be welded or brazed or used in a reducing atmosphere, then oxygen-free high conductivity copper (CW008A or ASTM ...

  8. Copper conductor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_conductor

    Copper wires Copper cable Coaxial cable made from copper. Copper has been used in electrical wiring since the invention of the electromagnet and the telegraph in the 1820s. [1] [2] The invention of the telephone in 1876 created further demand for copper wire as an electrical conductor. [3]

  9. Circular mil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_mil

    A circular mil is a unit of area, equal to the area of a circle with a diameter of one mil (one thousandth of an inch or 0.0254 mm). It is equal to π /4 square mils or approximately 5.067 × 10 −4 mm 2. It is a unit intended for referring to the area of a wire with a circular cross section.
