American Wire Gauge (AWG) Sizes and Properties Chart / Table. Table 1 lists the AWG sizes for electrical cables / conductors. In addition to wire size, the table provides values load (current) carrying capacity, resistance and skin effects. The resistances and skin depth noted are for copper conductors.
In the 1st Chapter, we focus on the wire gauge chart, denoting diameter (mm), cross-section (mm2), and amperage (maximum allowed amps) for each AWG wire. The key part is that we cover each wire individually; from the big 4/0 – 1/0 wires to the most popular 12 gauge, 14 gauge, 16 gauge wires, and down to the smallest 40 AWG gauge wire.
In these AWG gauge charts, most common gauge values show the different characteristics of wire such as its diameter, area, ampacity, resistance, current density, fusing current and temperature ratings etc.
Ampacity Charts. Wire Size & Amp Ratings. Ampacity is the maximum current that a conductor can carry continuously under the conditions of use without exceeding its temperature rating. Current is measured in amperes or “amps.” You must use the correct size wire for the current (load) requirement of the circuit to prevent the wire from overheating.
AWG Wire size chart and ampacity table for design engineers including skin depth frequencies and tensile strength data; electrical cable size.
The following chart is a guideline of “ampacity”, or copper wire current-carrying capacity following the Handbook of Electronic Tables and Formulas for American Wire Gauge. As you might guess, the rated “ampacities” are just a rule of thumb.
