18 gauge wire

English to Russian Tech/Engineering electric
Conversion tables show that What do you do about wire gauges? American 18 gauge wire is 0.403 inches in diameter. Is there an equivalent Russian or European standard or would you just convert it to mm?
Proposed translations (Russian)
5 +8 AWG is the American Wire Gauge System

AWG is the American Wire Gauge System

So I would convert it to mm. Please see the link below.

На Яндексе встречаются тексты, где AWG так и пишется, но мне кажется, это не очень грамотно и не очень понятно. Вот еще одна неплохая таблица конвертации:
