Gauges set to the American wire gauge system are only found in a circular format with gauge increments ranging from 0 to 36. | |||

They also have an imperial set of measurements on the reverse ranging from 0.005″ to 0.325″. This type of gauge is less common in the UK. It is sometimes used for measuring electrical wiring in imported American electronics. | |||
