AWG To Square Mm Wire Size Converter

Convert between AWG, inches and mm diameter, and square mm area measures of wire size At the bottom of this article is a table showing the relationship between the four main different measures of wire size: 1) AWG (American Wire gauge) 2) Diameter in Inches 3) Diameter in mm 4) Cross Sectional Area in square mm convert AWG to mm diameter when the AWG of a length of wire is known:

diameter [mm] = 0.127 * 92 ^ ((36-AWG)/39)

By turning the equation around, it is possible to calculate the AWG of a length of wire for which the mm diameter is known:

AWG = -(ln (diameter [mm]/0.127) / (ln (92) * 39) – 36)

nb. to convert mm to inches simply multiply by 0.03936 . To convert inches to mm divide by 0.03936.
