    Gauge is historically number of passes through gauging machine. With the machine and material in question being different for every single one. We took that and put it to a standard, so it’s super messy and makes no sense.

      Well, I wonder what kind of gauging machine can do -3 passes for 0000 wire… /s

      Too bad AWG is so ubiquitous it’s starting to creep into Europe.
