RMSSpannung
RMSSpannung refers to the Root Mean Square voltage. It is a measure of the effective voltage of an alternating current (AC) signal. The RMS value is equivalent to the DC voltage that would produce the same amount of heat in a resistive load. It is calculated by taking the square root of the mean of the squares of the instantaneous voltage values over one period of the waveform.
For a sinusoidal AC voltage, the RMS voltage is related to the peak voltage by a factor
Understanding RMSSpannung is important for electrical safety, component selection, and circuit analysis. It provides a consistent
