What is AWG Copper Wire?AWG Copper Wire Table Dimensions and Data Chart @ 100 degrees Fahrenheit. The American Wire Gauge (AWG) measurement system is designed so that for every three steps in the gauge scale, the wire area (and weight per unit length) approximately doubles. This is a handy rule to remember when roughly estimating wire size!


What are square copper wires used for? Square copper wire is great for decoration in rings, bracelets, and earrings, but it can also be straight! Use our square copper wire as a centerpiece in your piece or use it as an exercise. You'll have a good idea of what to expect from this piece, and you'll also have a piece of wire jewelry to keep for yourself, or to polish and sell on your own!

14 gauge square copper wire is copper wire with a cross-sectional area equivalent to 14 gauge round wire. The term "gauge" refers to the thickness or diameter of the wire and, in the case of square wire, also indicates the width and height of the cross-section of the wire.

Cross-sectional area: The gauge number provides information about the diameter or thickness of the wire. As the gauge number decreases, the diameter of the wire increases. For square wire, the gauge number also reflects the size of the cross-section of the wire. 14-gauge square wire has the same cross-sectional area as 14-gauge round wire.

Wire Properties: Copper is an excellent conductor of electricity, making it suitable for a variety of electrical and electronic applications. The thickness of the wire affects its current-carrying capacity, mechanical strength, and heat resistance.

APPLICATIONS: 14 gauge square copper wire can be used in applications that require a specific cross sectional area and conductivity. It is commonly used in electrical and artistic applications. Electrical applications may include wiring within appliances, electrical panels, circuits and assemblies. In artistic applications, square copper wire may be used for decorative purposes, jewelry making and crafts.

CHARACTERISTICS: Copper has high electrical and thermal conductivity, making it ideal for applications involving efficient transmission of electrical signals and heat dissipation. Square wires may have certain advantages in specific situations, such as ease of bending or use in artistic designs.

Sizing Considerations: When selecting a wire for a particular application, consider the amount of current the wire needs to carry, the distance it needs to travel, and any voltage considerations. These factors will help determine if 14-gauge square copper wire is right for your specific needs.

Current Carrying Capacity: Current carrying capacity is the maximum amount of current a wire can safely carry without overheating. Different insulation types and installation conditions will affect the amount of current a wire can carry. Always refer to electrical codes and standards to ensure proper wire selection.
