Cable Conversion Table

This document provides a wire conversion chart that matches American wire gauge sizes to metric sizes and ampacities. It includes a middle ring listing American wire gauges, an outer ring with ampacity ratings for insulated conductors rated from 0-2000 volts at temperatures from 60-90 degrees Celsius, and an inter ring noting that metric sizes are also provided in mm2. An example is given converting 500 mcm American wire gauge to 250mm2 using the chart and NEC table 310-60. Ambient temperature correction factors must also be applied according to SAES-P-104.
