Township

A township is a land measurement unit used mainly in the United States within the Public Land Survey System (PLSS). It refers to a square area that is 6 miles on each side, covering a total of 36 square miles.

• 
  

  1 township = 36 square miles = 23,040 acres ≈ 93.24 square kilometers.

  
  

Townships are divided into 36 sections, each 1 square mile, used for organizing and describing land parcels.

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.
