Township
A township is a unit of land measurement or administrative division, often used to describe a subdivision of a county or municipality.
History/Origin
Historically, townships originated as land divisions in colonial America and were used for administrative and land surveying purposes. The concept varies by country, with some regions using it as a local government unit and others as a cadastral division.
Current Use
Today, townships are used primarily in certain countries like the United States and Canada for administrative, land surveying, and local governance purposes, though their specific functions and boundaries can differ regionally.
Circular Mil
A circular mil is a unit of area used to measure the cross-sectional size of wires, representing the area of a circle with a diameter of one mil (one thousandth of an inch).
History/Origin
The circular mil originated in the electrical industry to specify wire sizes before the adoption of metric units. It has been a standard measurement in North America for wire gauge sizes for many decades.
Current Use
Circular mils are still used today in the electrical industry to specify wire cross-sectional areas, especially in North America, although metric units are increasingly common.
