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.

Which wire is smallest in AWG?
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
What is larger 6 AWG or 4 AWG?
4 AWG is larger than 6 AWG because the lower the number, the larger the wire size. In this case, 4 AWG has a larger diameter and can carry more current than 6 AWG.
Which is larger in diameter12 AWG or 15 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.
What is the smallest copper wire size permitted by the national electric code for a 20 amp single phase electrical circuit?
I think you mean either what is the correct size or minimum wire size needed when a branch circuit is protected by a 20 A breaker. The size is 12 American Wire gauge (AWG). 14 AWG is used for 15 A circuit and 10 AWG for a 30 A breaker. The lower the gauge the larger the cross-section of the wire.
What is equivalent of 4mm2 in AWG?
The approximate AWG equivalent for a 4mm2 wire is AWG 12.
What is 16 AWG THHNTWN?
I think you mean 16 AWG THWN. It's coating for PVC piping.
What does a smaller AWG mean?
Smaller numbers mean thicker wires
What does AWG-42 MEAN?
American Wire Gauge
What does AWG mean?
American Wire Guage. The smaller the number the larger the wire. As in an AWG 14/2 wire is much smaller than an AWG 10/2 wire.
What does 7 29 wire mean?
7 strands of 29 gauge (AWG) wire
When was AWG plc created?
AWG plc was created in 1973.
What do the letters AWG means?
American Wire Gauge ( AWG )

What is larger 6 AWG or 4 AWG?
4 AWG is larger than 6 AWG because the lower the number, the larger the wire size. In this case, 4 AWG has a larger diameter and can carry more current than 6 AWG.
What is a usb 28 awg 1p plus 24 awg 2c?
28 awg 1p for data, 24 awg 2c for power. i'm searching for differences bteween 1p and 2c code...
Which is larger in diameter12 AWG or 15 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.
What is diameter of 22 AWG wire?
22 AWG has a diameter of 0.0253 inch.
