Spec value → metric (ETIM)
ETIM features take metric values. Type a spec as the supplier wrote it, with its unit, and get the metric value and unit code.

How it's calculated
- Wire sizes become cross-section in mm² from the AWG definition.
- Exact factors: 1 in = 25.4 mm, 1 ft = 0.3048 m, 1 lb = 0.45359237 kg, 1 lbf·in = 0.113 N·m.
Check which unit the ETIM feature expects (mm vs m, g vs kg) before loading.
