Wire Gage. a. The size of wire may be designated either by gage number or by its diameter in mils.  Usually the size of wire less than one-half of a inch in diameter is stated in gage number.  Wire larger than one-half of an inch in diameter usually is described in terms of its diameter in mils (one-thousandth of an inch) or in terms of its cross-sectional area in circular mils.  The size (gage number) of a solid wire refers to the cross-section of the wire perpendicular to its length.  The size or gage number of a stranded wire refers to its total cross-section b. American Wire Gage is commonly used in the United States for copper and aluminum wire and in general for wire used in electrical work.  It is designated by the abbreviation AWG. c.
