  2. Wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_gauge

    Measuring. In commerce, the sizes of wire are estimated by devices, also called gauges, which consist of plates of circular or oblong form having notches of different widths around their edges to receive wire and sheet metals of different thicknesses. Each notch is stamped with a number, and the wire or sheet, which just fits a given notch, is ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_wire_gauge

    American wire gauge. American Wire Gauge (AWG) is a logarithmic stepped standardized wire gauge system used since 1857, predominantly in North America, for the diameters of round, solid, nonferrous, electrically conducting wire. Dimensions of the wires are given in ASTM standard B 258. [1] The cross-sectional area of each gauge is an important ...

  4. Birmingham gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birmingham_gauge

    In medicine, the Birmingham gauge specifies the outside diameter of hypodermic needles, catheters, cannulae and suture wires. It was originally developed in early 19th-century England for use in wire manufacture, and began appearing in a medical setting in the early 20th century. Another common needle gauge system is the French catheter scale.

  5. French catheter scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_catheter_scale

    An increasing French size corresponds to a larger external diameter. This is contrary to Birmingham gauge, where an increasing gauge corresponds to a smaller diameter needle. The French size is a measure of the outer diameter of a catheter (not internal drainage channel, or inner diameter). So, for example, if a two-way catheter of 20 Fr is ...

  6. Ammeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammeter

    As the current through the coil increases, the plunger is drawn further into the coil and the pointer deflects to the right. An ammeter (abbreviation of ampere meter) is an instrument used to measure the current in a circuit. Electric currents are measured in amperes (A), hence the name. For direct measurement, the ammeter is connected in ...

  7. Standard wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_wire_gauge

    A standard wire gauge. British Standard Wire Gauge (often abbreviated to Standard Wire Gauge or SWG) is a unit for denoting wire size given by BS 3737:1964 (now withdrawn). It is also known as the Imperial Wire Gauge or British Standard Gauge. Use of SWG sizes has fallen greatly in popularity, but they are still used as a measure of thickness ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FASTON_terminal

    FASTON terminals or faston terminals are connectors that are widely used in electronic and electrical equipment. These terminals are manufactured by many companies, commonly using the terms "quick disconnect", "quick connect", "tab" terminals, "spade" terminals [1] or blade connectors; without qualifiers, the first two could be mistaken for ...
