Metric Cable Sizes Conversion

In europe wire sizes are expressed in cross sectional area in mm and also as the number of strands of wires of a diameter expressed in mm.

Metric cable sizes conversion.

Metric to awg conversion chart american wire gauge awg sizes may be determined by measuring the diameter of the conductor the bare wire with the insulation removed. Our mm to awg chart is unique because we go up to 2000 mcm or 2000 kcmil which is 1010 mm2 metric on this chart. In the united states wire sizes are commonly measured in american wire gauge aw. 10 0 7 160 60 93 280 37 21 70 855 1706 120 19 14 15 558 731 20 1010 2000 127 41 45 1 632 6176 metric conductors.

We are the leading united states manufacturer of huge copper electrical cables up to 6000 kcmil so please keep us in mind on your next project.

This table gives closest equivalent size cross references between metric and american wire sizes. Refer to the wire gauge diameter table for dimensions. Increasing awg give decreasing cross sectional areas the smallest awg size being 50 and the largest 0000.
