Understanding Peak Voltage
Peak voltage represents the maximum absolute value of voltage in an AC waveform. Understanding the relationship between peak, RMS (Root Mean Square), and average voltage is crucial in electrical engineering and power systems analysis.
Key Relationships:
- • Peak Voltage = RMS Voltage × √2 (≈ 1.414)
- • RMS Voltage = Peak Voltage ÷ √2 (≈ 0.707)
- • Average Voltage = Peak Voltage × 0.637
Common Applications:
Peak voltage calculations are essential in:
- • Component rating and selection
- • Power supply design
- • Electrical safety analysis
- • Power quality assessment
