Circular Mil


A circular mil is a unit of area used mainly to measure the cross-sectional area of round wires and cables in electrical engineering.



  • Defined as the area of a circle with a diameter of 1 mil (1 mil = 0.001 inch).



  • Area = (diameter in mils)² circular mils.



  • 1 circular mil ≈ 7.854 × 10⁻¹⁰ square meters or 0.7854 square mils.



Circular mils simplify calculations for round wires since area scales with the square of the diameter.



Acre [ac]


An acre (ac) is a unit of area commonly used in the United States and other countries for measuring land. One acre equals 43,560 square feet or about 4,047 square meters.

1 acre ≈ 0.4047 hectares or 0.004047 square kilometers.

Acres are often used to describe the size of farms, plots, and real estate.
