I assume you are looking for the meaning of this acronym.
M = thousands
CM = circular mils
CM is the cross-sectional area of wire whose diameter is measured in MILS
One MIL = One-thousanth of an inch
A lesser ussage is KCM, where K = thousand
Common MCM sizes in the electrical trade are 500, 350, 250 Additional Answer First of all, 'MCM' isn't an acronym; its an abbreviation. 'Acronyms' are words formed from abbreviations, so must be pronounceable which, clearly, 'MCM' isn't!
A circular mil (CM) is a figure that represents the cross-sectional area of a circular-section conductor whose diameter is one mil (i.e. one-thousandth of an inch).
It's important to understand that a circular mil doesn't actually measure cross-sectional area, it merely a figure that represents a cross-sectional area. This is because 'squaring a diameter' doesn't result in a unit of area unless the ratio 'pi' is taken into account (because area = pi x radius2).
To confuse matters further, 'M', in this rather-odd system of measurement, represent '1000' rather than the more-usual 'k'.
Interestingly, the circular mil is a measurement unique to North America. Elsewhere in the world, conductor sizes are measured in square millimetres.

I suppose that MCM is the incorrect acronym for micrometer.
The micrometer is unit of length, with the symbol μm; the value is 0,000 001 m.

There are many different possible organizations and businesses that the acronym ICAN could stand for. This acronym could stand for the International Cesarean Awareness Network. This acronym could also stand for the Independent Community Arts Network.
Letters that stand for parts of a name are called initials.
There is no acronym with the letters CORNER. It does not stand for anything because it does not exist. No concept or organization uses the acronym CORNER.
What does the acronym D.R.I.V.E. stand for?
MCM stands for 1900. M is 1000. C is 100. Because a smaller lies before a bigger roman numeral you must substract. So 1000 + (1000-100) = 1900 or MCM.
The acronym AB stands for Architect Building.
The acronym LR stands for Long Range.
The acronym AC stands for Before Meals.
The acronym AAW stands for Antiair Warfare.
The acronym AAF stands for Army Airfield.
The acronym AD stands for Anno Domini.
