MM to Gauge Conversion

[Christopher]

I thought this might be useful as I had to use it today

Wire cross sectional area calculation

The n gauge wire's cross sercional area An in square millimeters (mm2) is equal to pi divided by 4 times the square wire diameter d in millimeters (mm):

An (mm2) = (π/4)×dn2
