AWG stands for American Wire Gauge. It is a standardized wire gauging system for the diameters of round, solid, electrically conducting wire.
AWG stands for American Wire Gauge.
AWG stands for American Wire Gage (gage is spelt gauge in British English)The larger the gauge number, the thinner the wire.
12 awg is larger.
It stands for American Wire Gauge and a designation like 10 AWG indicates the size. There are a number of other specifications which derive from the cross sectional area of the wire as designated by the gauge. One confusing aspect is as the number of the gauge gets smaller the current carrying capacity increases.
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
AWG # 6 copper or AWG # 4 aluminum

American Wire Gauge. Measure the thickness of the cable.

AWG plc was created in 1973.
American Wire Gauge ( AWG )
the lower the number, the larger the wire. 0 AWG is larger than 4 AWG More information: The above answer is correct but I wish to add more information. What you are calling 0 AWG is usually written as 1/0 and called "one ought". From there the numbers get larger: 1/0, 2/0 (read "2 ought"), 3/0, and 4/0. From there wires are written in there MCM size or kcmils (kilo-circular-mills) which stands for thousand circular mills, the same as MCM. That's a lot of useless information unless you are a competent electrician. I just wanted to clarify that 0 AWG is commonly called 1/0, or "one ought."

28 awg 1p for data, 24 awg 2c for power. i'm searching for differences bteween 1p and 2c code...
22 AWG has a diameter of 0.0253 inch.
AWG is American wire gauge and SWG means Standard wire gauge .. swg+1=awg according to my calculation...
10 AWG can be solid. 8 AWG and larger should be stranded. 2008 NEC 310.3 2011 NEC 310.106(C)
