    US-American and British Units: Conversion of Usual Measuring Units

    Uploaded by

    rocketvt
    This document provides information on units of measurement for cables and wires as well as general conversion of units between the US customary system and other systems. It lists the cross-sectional area, diameter, and resistance per kilometer for various American Wire Gauge (AWG) sizes. It also includes conversions between common units of length, area, volume, temperature, weight, force, velocity, energy, pressure, density, horsepower, electricity, and power.

    Conversion of usual measuring units

    Units for cables and wires


    In the US the measurements are mainly used in AWG-numbers (AWG = American Wire Gauge). The AWGnumbers conform the british B&S-numbers (B&S = Brown & Sharp).
