  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. American wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_wire_gauge

    The sixth power of 39 √ 92 is very close to 2, [4] which leads to the following rules of thumb: When the cross-sectional area of a wire is doubled, the AWG will decrease by 3. (E.g. two 14 AWG wires have about the same cross-sectional area as a single 11 AWG wire.) This doubles the conductance.

  4. Tri-rated cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tri-rated_cable

    Tri-rated cable is a high temperature, flame retardant electrical wire designed for use inside electrical equipment. Tri-rated cable meets the requirements of three different international standards: BS 6231, UL 758, and CSA 22.2. [1] Combining three standards in one product makes tri-rated cable suitable for use in equipment that is required ...

  5. High-voltage cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-voltage_cable

    High voltage is defined as any voltage over 1000 volts. [3] Those of 2 to 33 kV are usually called medium voltage cables, those over 50 kV high voltage cables.. Modern HV cables have a simple design consisting of a few parts: the conductor, the conductor shield, the insulation, the insulation shield, the metallic shield, and the jacket.

    IEC 60228, the metric wire-size standard used in most parts of the world. Circular mil, Electrical industry standard for wires larger than 4/0. American Wire Gauge (AWG), used primarily in the US and Canada; Standard Wire Gauge (SWG), the British imperial standard BS3737; Jewelry wire gauge; Body jewelry sizes

  7. NEMA connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEMA_connector

    As an example, the 5-15R is the common 125 V two-pole, three-wire receptacle rated for 15 A. The L5-15R, while sharing the same electrical rating, is a locking design that is not physically compatible with the straight-blade 5-15 design. The 5-30R has the same two-pole, three-wire configuration and 125 V rating, but is rated for 30 A.
