At our last meeting in Tempe, AZ (look ma, no snow) we decided that (in order to be politically correct, not to mention complying with the IPC mandate for "hard metric" standards) we needed to provide a description of wires sizes in Metric as well as AWG. Problem is, after appealing to cohorts in the UK, we are unable to come up with a ready reference which will relate AWG to a metric wire gauge (MWG) equivalent. Anyone who can provide cross reference information between AWG and MWG will receive a gold star (figuratively speaking). Anyone with info can reply to directly Ralph Hersey or Jim Moffitt, or to TechNet. - Thanks in advance for the help and assistance.
