2. IEC 60228 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_60228

   Comparison of SWG (red), AWG (blue) and IEC 60228 (black) wire gauge sizes from 0.03 to 200 mm² to scale on a 1 mm grid – in the SVG file, hover over a size to highlight it. In engineering applications, it is often most convenient to describe a wire in terms of its cross-section area, rather than its diameter, because the cross section is directly proportional to its strength and weight ...

   4/1.5 mm 2 and 6/2.5 mm 2 have stranded conductors and a solid CPC (fixed high power equipment or sub-mains) 10/4 mm 2 and 16/6 mm 2 have stranded conductors and CPC (fixed high power equipment or sub-mains) In older properties (pre-1970) cable with imperial sizes are found, sometimes without CPC.

6. Tri-rated cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tri-rated_cable

   Tri-rated cable is a high temperature, flame retardant electrical wire designed for use inside electrical equipment. Tri-rated cable meets the requirements of three different international standards: BS 6231, UL 758, and CSA 22.2. [ 1 ]

7. Electrical wiring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_wiring

   A wire or cable has a voltage (to neutral) rating and a maximum conductor surface temperature rating. The amount of current a cable or wire can safely carry depends on the installation conditions. The international standard wire sizes are given in the IEC 60228 standard of the International Electrotechnical Commission.
