512.0. "gauge/gage to square milimeters ?" by SAWA::JERZYNSKI (Zygmunt JERZYNSKI) Wed Feb 22 1995 09:51

    Can somebody please tell me, how can I calculate a gauge value
        into square milimeters ?
        I understand that the HIGHER the gauge, the THINNER the wire, right
    ?
    
        OR, simply give some examples, say 18, 16, 14, 12, 10, 8 gauge = ?
    mm2
    
        thx.

The larger the gauge number, the thinner the wire,

You might want to ask this (or see if there's some mention) in the related
