Craig :

he circular mil area of a wire or cable is equal to its diameter - expressed in mils squared:

CM = mil 2 (2)

where

CM = circular mil area (CM)

The diameter in mil of a circular wire can be expressed as:

mil = CM1/2 (2b)

Craig :

So: .83 x .83 = .688 OR 688 CM

Craig :

688 circular mils for the answer

Craig :

Excuse me, there is a decimal in here, it's 6.88 CM

Craig :

Answer is 6.88 CM
