This Data Set contains the the wire gauges assigned by four standards to various sizes listed by diameter of the wires.


Electrician Calculators

  • Voltage Drop: This computes the voltage drop in volts and as a percentage over a length of cable (wire) based on length of wire, gauge, wire material, temperature range and phase.
  • Wire Gauge Choice for Safe Voltage Drop: This determines the lightest gauge of wire that can be used over a run (circuit) that maintains adequate voltage.
  • Circular Mils and Voltage Drop: This computes voltage drop based on wire diameter in circular mils instead of wire gauge.
  • Electricity Usage Cost: This computes the cost of electricity for the use of a piece of equipment based on the power consumption rate, duration and cost of electricity.
  • Electricity Consumption: This computes the amount of electricity consumed by an electrical appliance or motor over time.
  • Rolling Offset: This computes the travel (T) and run (R) of a rolling offset used in conduit piping based on the offsets and angles.
  • Diameter of AWG Wire: This provides the diameter of wire based on the American Wire Guide (AWG) gauge in mils and millimeters, and it also provide the cross-section area in square millimeters.
  • P = V2 / R: This computes power (Watts) based on the voltage (V) and resistance (R).
  • DC to AC Converter: Computes the approximate voltage of Alternating Current (AC) from the voltage of Direct Current (DC).
  • Diameter to Circular Mils: Computed the circular mils of a wire and the cross-section area based on the wire's diameter.
