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 ...
The phase velocity at which electrical signals travel along a transmission line or other cable depends on the construction of the line. Therefore, the wavelength corresponding to a given frequency varies in different types of lines, thus at a given frequency different conductors of the same physical length can have different electrical lengths.
A cable in this usage cable is a thick rope or by transference a chain cable. [1] The OED gives quotations from c. 1400 onwards. A cable's length (often "cable length" or just "cable") is simply the standard length in which cables came, which by 1555 had settled to around 100 fathoms (600 ft; 180 m) or 1 ⁄ 10 nautical mile (0.19 km; 0.12 mi).

In stricter senses, the term wire rope refers to a diameter larger than 9.5 mm (3 ⁄ 8 in), with smaller gauges designated cable or cords. [1] Initially wrought iron wires were used, but today steel is the main material used for wire ropes. Historically, wire rope evolved from wrought iron chains, which had a record of mechanical failure.
2.5/1.5mm 2 has a solid CPC and may have solid or stranded conductors (primarily used for socket circuits, radial or ring circuit) 4/1.5 mm 2 and 6/2.5 mm 2 have stranded conductors and a solid CPC (fixed high power equipment or sub-mains) 10/4 mm 2 and 16/6 mm 2 have stranded conductors and CPC (fixed high power equipment or sub-mains)
In North America bird names are used for the code words while animal names are used elsewhere. For instance in North America, Grosbeak is a 322.3 mm 2 (636 kcmil) ACSR conductor with 26/7 Aluminium/Steel stranding whereas Egret is the same total aluminium size (322.3 mm 2, 636 kcmil conductor) but with 30/19 Aluminium/Steel stranding. Although ...
It consists of 9 × 5 × 5 × 27 (totaling 6,075) strands of #36 AWG (0.127 mm [0.0050 in] diameter) magnet wire and multiple layers of cotton, hemp, and plastic insulation, in a cable 19 mm (3 ⁄ 4 inch) in diameter, totaling 151,875 circular mils (0.7695619839 cm 2) of copper.
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]
