Im just going through a few finer grades of wire with a micrometer and digital vernier and comparing results with the tables here
https://www.rapidtables.com/calc/wire/awg-to-mm.html
Is there a difference in what were quoting between awg swg and mm , I have a roll of old UK made magnet wire , solderable , marked 36swg and 0.20mm , measures right with the vernier ,when I strip off the insulation I measure 0.16mm diameter copper, when I try to use the calculator to get the resistance of 1 foot and compare the reading with the LCR Im a good bit out .
Does awg and swg refer to the diameter of the copper ,while the mm value is over all outside diameter including insulation ?
