AWG Math
According to the American Wire Gauge (AWG)
system, solid wire sizes are based on a logarithmic scale, whereby doubling the
cross-sectional area corresponds to a wire size decrease of 3 (like with dB). So,
using two #30 wires in parallel is the equivalent to a single #27 wire, and four
#30 wires in parallel is equivalent to a single #24 wire. |
