Another name for average voltage is the RMS (Root Mean Square). This is a voltage derived from the peak to peak voltage multiplied by .707. If the peak to peak voltage is 170 volts then the average voltage (RMS) would be 170 x .707 = 120 volts.

What is the ratio of rms load voltage to mean load voltage?

The mean load voltage, in other words the average voltage, is zero in an ac system.


When It is required to calculate average voltage and when RMS voltage?

It is usually required in electrical examinations to make calculations. Simple answer to a complicated calculation. Remember, take peak to peak voltage and multiply by .707, the result being average voltage. This is the voltage that electrical test meters read.

What is average value in alternate voltage?

The term is 'alternating voltage', not 'alternate voltage'. For an a.c. voltage or current, the average value is taken over half its wavelength because, over a complete wavelength it is, of course, zero. For a sine wave, the average value (over half a wavelength) is 0.637 Vmax or 0.637 Imax.


Is DC voltage and average voltage same?

no, dc volatage is a type of current direct current, ac is alternating current, average voltage could be any type of voltage ac or dc that maintains a constant rangeAnswerNo. A DC voltage is exactly equivalent to an AC rms-voltage. So, for example, 100 V (DC) is exactly equivalent to 100 V (AC rms). The average value of an AC waveform is zero.

Does digital voltmeter measures rms voltage or peak to peak voltage or average?

Yes, most DMM are ''average responding", giving accurate rms reading if the ac voltage signal is a pure sine wave. They measure the average of the absolute value of ac voltage and are calibrated so that reading are corrected to that of the rms value of a sine wave.Error occur if harmonic are present.
