UK use SWG (Standard Wire Guage). Europe favours CSA(Cross Sectional Area), whilst in US it's AWG(American Wire Guage).
CSA is quoted in square millimetres, (mm2). If the box under a particular category is empty, then there is no exact equivalent
for that category. NOTE: The CSA figures quoted are exact for each guage, and so you may find that 1mm could substitute for 17
AWG and 18 SWG if you come across it. Wire manufactured in CSA sizes tends to come in fixed sizes such as 0.5 mm, 1.3 mm 1.5mm
etc. and not in the precise measurements listed here.
