What are Arpent and CircularMil

An arpent is a unit of length that was historically used in France, Louisiana, and Quebec. While its value varied from region to region, it is commonly equivalent to about 58.47 meters or 192 feet. The arpent was primarily used in the measurement of land area, particularly in French colonial areas.

A circular mil is a unit of area used primarily in the electrical industry to define the cross-sectional size of wires or cables. One circular mil is the area of a circle with a diameter of one mil (one-thousandth of an inch). It is a convenient measure because, when calculating the area of a circular wire, it eliminates the need to use π (pi).

History of Arpent and CircularMil

The Arpent to Circular Mil Converter has its roots in the need to bridge the gap between traditional land measurement units like the arpent and modern electrical units like the circular mil. This tool embodies the evolution of measurement systems to accommodate diverse industry requirements.
