AWG: In the American Wire Gauge (AWG), diameters can be calculated by applying the formula: D(AWG) = 0.005 * 92 ((36-AWG)/39) inch. For the 00, 000, 0000 etc. gauges you use -1, -2, -3, which makes more sense mathematically than “double nought.”

In these AWG gauge charts, most common gauge values show the different characteristics of wire such as its diameter, area, ampacity, resistance, current density, fusing current and temperature ratings etc.
AWG chart. Wire gauge calculations. Wire diameter calculations. The n gauge wire diameter d n in inches (in) is equal to 0.005in times 92 raised to the power of 36 minus gauge number n, divided by 39: dn (in) = 0.005 in × 92 (36-n)/39.
AWG is a standard denoting wire diameter, whereas the metric conductor sizes according to standard IEC 60228 describe a wire in terms of its cross-sectional area, rather than its diameter, because the cross section is directly proportional to its strength, weight, and resistance.
