Generally, there are three main cordage type used in the world: |
| |
1. The American wire Gauge (AWG) system used in North America. |
| |
2. The European Harmonized types. In AWG system, the cordage is described in terms of wire gauge size such as 18AWG, while (an 18AWG conductor is comparable to 0.823mm2) |
| |
3. IEC types Xxmm2 |
