What are Circular Mil and Break

Definition of Circular Mil

A Circular Mil is a unit of area used primarily in the electrical industry to describe the cross-sectional size of a wire or cable. One circular mil is the area of a circle with a diameter of one mil (one-thousandth of an inch). It provides a direct measure of the wire's capacity to carry electrical current, as the area directly affects the resistance and conductance properties of the wire.

Definition of Break

A Break in the context of electrical engineering typically refers to a fault or interruption in a circuit. It implies that there is a discontinuity or gap in the conductive path, preventing the flow of electrical current. This term can also mean to open or disrupt an electrical connection intentionally, as in 'to break a circuit', which is essential for circuit control and safety measures.
