I was just informed that the original wire was about 12 ga. (maybe
slightly larger; original was metric) but it was rewound using 10 ga.

Why do Americans persist in using stupid AWG that no-one else in the

Have you never heard of mm^2 ?

end up using both systems regularly but it's not as if it's up to me
what the whole country uses.
