American Wire Gauge (AWG) sizes may be determined by measuring the diameter of the conductor (the bare wire) with the insulation removed. Refer to the Wire gauge Diameter Table for dimensions. When choosing wire gauge, the distance the wire must run and the amperage it will be expected to carry must be determined first.

AWG Wire Sizes; Last updated: 2/8/04 ... A. Copper wire is made by drawing copper rods through dies of decreasing sizes. More dies are needed to make a thinner wire. The American Wire Gauge (AWG) number is the actual number of dies used to make the wire.

AWG (American Wire Gauge) ... It is known as BS (Brown & Sharp wire gauge). The AWG guging system is defined as geometrical progression because of drawing machanism nature. The 36 AWG is defined as 5 mil diameter, and the 4/0 AWG is defined as 460 mil diameter.
