  2. American wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_wire_gauge

    The resistance of copper wire is approximately ⁠ 1 ohms / 1000 feet ⁠ for 10 AWG, ⁠ 10 ohms / 1000 feet ⁠ for 20 AWG, ⁠ 100 ohms / 1000 feet ⁠ for 30 AWG, and so on. [ 5 ] : 27 Because aluminum wire has a conductivity of approximately 61% of copper, an aluminum wire has nearly the same resistance as a copper wire that is two sizes ...

  3. Wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_gauge

    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. The first attempt to adopt a geometrical system was made by Messrs Brown & Sharpe in 1855.

  4. Twist-on wire connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twist-on_wire_connector

    Twist-on connectors are not often used on wire gauges thicker than AWG #10 (5.26 mm²), because such solid wires are too stiff to be reliably connected with this method. Set screw connectors, clamps or crimp connectors are used instead.

  5. 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 ...

  6. Pin header - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pin_header

    1×6 pin header (one row) 1×6 female header (one row) A pin header (or simply, header) is a form of electrical connector.A male pin header consists of one or more rows of metal pins molded into a plastic base, often 2.54 mm (0.1 in) apart, though available in many spacings. [1]

  7. DC connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_connector

    The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) has standardized a set of multi-pin screw plugs matching ISO metric screw thread, available in M5, M8 and M12 sizes. M5 connectors are very low current, typically only used for signal wiring, while some M8 pin arrangements are rated for up to 3 A, and some M12 arrangements are available up to ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digikey

    DigiKey is the fourth largest electronic component distributor in North America and the fifth largest electronic component distributor overall. [3] Stordahl privately owns the company . [4] The name "Digi-Key" is a reference to the "Digi-Keyer Kit," a digital electronic keyer kit that Stordahl developed and marketed to amateur radio enthusiasts.

  9. SMA connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMA_connector

    The interface dimensions for SMA connectors are listed in MIL-STD-348. [5] The SMA connector employs a 1 ⁄ 4 inch diameter, 36-thread-per-inch threaded barrel. The male is equipped with a hex nut measuring 5 ⁄ 16 inch (0.3125 inch / 7.9 mm) across opposite flats, thus taking the same wrench as a #6 SAE hex nut.
