It is a wire size, the equivalent cross sectional area in thousands of circular mils. e.g. 500 MCM or kcmil = 500,000 circular mils. The circular mil is a unit of area used especially when denoting the cross-sectional size of a wire. It is the equivalent area of a circle whose diameter is 0.001 (10-3) inch. AWG stands for American Wire Guage.
The most common standards for wire gauges are the American Wire Gauge (AWG) and the Standard Wire Gauge (SWG). AWG is primarily used in North America, while SWG is more common in the United Kingdom and other countries. Both standards use a numerical system to represent wire sizes, with lower numbers indicating thicker wires.
AWG stands for American Wire Gauge, which is a standardized system used in North America to denote the diameter of electrically conducting wire. It is commonly used to specify the size of wire in electrical circuits.

12 AWG wire is larger in diameter than 15 AWG wire. Wire gauge sizes decrease as the number increases, so a lower gauge number represents a larger wire diameter.

No. A #20 wire does not have the physical circular mils for a load of 30 amps. The wire would burn the circuit open.

For Service Entrance Cable 600 kcmill (Thousands of circular mils).
Approximate overall diameter of the wire is 12.8 mm. If you are looking for metric wire size 95 mm2. 187500 circular mils.

Using the AWG for wire sizes only goes up to 4/0. After that the increases use MCM to size the wire. So your 262 MCM wire size will be same in AWG. There is no 262 MCM in the North American market place. It goes in 50 MCM increments starting at 250 MCM , 300 MCM, 350 MCM, 400 MCM right up to 2000 MCM cable.

Beats me, the National Electrical Code does not list a #9 awg wire.
12 AWG wire is larger in diameter than 15 AWG wire. Wire gauge sizes decrease as the number increases, so a lower gauge number represents a larger wire diameter.
The larger the AWG number the smaller the wire. 10 AWG wire can carry more current than 12 AWG wire.The wire sizes of 24 and 26 are the smallest that are used in the electrical.See related links below
