Is there a simple calculator someplace that will help determine the total physical diameter/equivalence of several wires grouped together into a single crimp?
In other words, if I want to combine two 12 ga wires and two 14 ga wires into one ring terminal crimp, is there a simple way to determine what size ring terminal I would need (or other similar combinations)?
Thanks.

Look for a conversion table from AWG to CMA. Find your total in CMA's and convert back to AWG if you want.
My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.

Okay, thanks.
I just found this calculator that converts AWG into all of the equivalents. So I guess, like you suggest, I'll just add-up the diameter or CM's and find an AWG that's close in approximation.
