Best Answer

A conventional voltmeter displays 0.707 of the peak voltage when it measures AC.

In doing so, it displays the RMS value of the measured voltage IF the measured voltage is a sinusoid.

If the measured voltage is not a sinusoid, then its peak value is 1.414 times the displayed number, and
you have to calculate the RMS based on the waveform.
