1 SWG = 18 AWG
Full precision:18 AWG
Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 1 swg to awg, we multiply by 1 because one standard wire gauge equals exactly 1 awg.
1 standard wire gauge = 1 awg
Since each standard wire gauge contains 1 awg, we multiply our value by this factor:
1 × 1 = 18 awg
So 1 swg = 18 awg.
Quick check: 18 ÷ 1 = 1 swg
Example Conversions
Example 1: 1 SWG = 18 AWG
1 × 1 = 18
1 × 1 = 18
Example 2: 5 SWG = 10 AWG
5 × 1 = 10
5 × 1 = 10
Example 3: 10 SWG = 8 AWG
10 × 1 = 8
10 × 1 = 8
