Formulas used
- d (mm) = 0.127 x 92 ^ ((36 - AWG) / 39)
- Area = pi x d squared / 4
Frequently asked questions
Why do Indian cables use mm2 and not AWG?
Indian wiring standards size conductors by cross-section in mm2. AWG appears on imported cables and electronics wire.
Is the AWG match exact?
Not always. Metric sizes and AWG sizes do not line up, so the tool shows the nearest AWG and the area it actually has.
