As a medical professional with expertise in cardiology, I can explain that the small boxes on an ECG, also known as the grid, are standardized to represent both time and voltage. Each small box is typically 0.20 seconds in duration. This standardization allows for consistent interpretation of ECG tracings across different machines and settings.

The ECG paper speed is ordinarily 25 mm/sec. As a result, each 1 mm (small) horizontal box corresponds to 0.04 second (40 ms), with heavier lines forming larger boxes that include five small boxes and hence represent 0.20 sec (200 ms) intervals.
