What does the AWG size chart show?
The AWG size chart also shows the current in amperes for chassis wiring and power transfer application. Note: Resistance of wires in 惟/km and 惟/kft are at 20C or 68F. Here is the AWG wire size chart in image format if you need to download it for reference.
What does AWG mean in electrical wiring?
Similarly to the SWG (Standard Wire Gauge) used in the UK, AWG is used to determine the ampacity of copper and aluminum wires for electrical wiring installations etc.
What gauge is 0000 AWG wire?
4/0 or 0000 AWG gauge wire is the thickest wire used in the standard AWG (ie. Brown Sharpe wire gauge) system. It is one of the two AWG wires that have a 10+ mm diameter (4/0 AWG wire to mm equals 11.684 mm).
What is the largest diameter of AWG wire?
In the list of standard sizes as integers, 4/0 (0000) is the largest diameter and 40AWG is the smallest diameter printed on AWG. In addition, there are some special gauges such as 0000 (4/0), 000 (3/0), 00 (2/0) used for wire diameter and thickness larger than 0AWG.
