Using Peak voltage calculator
For a zero-offset sine wave, peak voltage = RMS voltage × √2.
Peak-to-peak voltage is twice the peak. These relationships do not apply unchanged to square waves or distorted waveforms.
A worked example
With sine-wave rms voltage (v) = 100, the peak voltage (v) is 141.4213562373095.
Before you use the result
Peak-to-peak voltage is twice the peak. These relationships do not apply unchanged to square waves or distorted waveforms.
Example results for sine-wave rms voltage (v)
These examples use the formula above. They are reference calculations, not recommended settings.
| Sine-wave RMS voltage (V) | Peak voltage (V) |
|---|---|
| 50 | 70.7106781187 |
| 100 | 141.421356237 |
| 200 | 282.842712475 |
