General Information about Sizing

Any size followed by a “/0” is referred to as that number and then aught – so, 1/0 AWG is 1 aught.  Aught is an old English term for “zero” so:

  • 1/0 AWG = 0 AWG = #0 = 1/0 = 1 aught
  • 2/0 AWG = 00 AWG = #00 = 2/0 = 2 aught
  • 3/0 AWG = 000 AWG = #000 = 3/0 = 3 aught
  • 4/0 AWG = 0000 AWG = #0000 = 4/0 = 4 aught

Cable sizes get larger with more zeroes!  And yes, zero gauge is in fact 1/0 AWG.  AWG simply denotes that the cable meets or exceeds the American Wire Gauge standards.

Now, 4 AWG is easily confused with 4/0 AWG as some folks pronounce the abbreviation AWG as aug, which they confuse with aught.  2 AWG easily confused with 2/0 AWG, 1 AWG easily confused with 1/0 AWG, etc.  So, keep the following in mind:

  • 4/0 AWG is SIX sizes larger than 4 AWG!
  • 2/0 AWG is THREE sizes larger than 2 AWG!
  • 1/0 AWG is ONE size larger than 1 AWG!
