Yes, if it is set to measure AC, it is usually calibrated to RMS.

Why does the phase t neutral read 69 volts on a 120 volt circuit?
Assuming you are using the correct meter with true RMS you most likely have a loose neutral somewhere in the circuit. Try to measure from hot to ground. If this measures 120V then you most likely have a loose neutral somewhere.
What are the types of electrodynamometer?
power meter,power factor meter, frequency meter, volt meter ,watt meter ,voltage ampere meter,
What is the sign for amp on a volt clamp meter?
A
What is the name of an instrument for measuring voltage?
A volt meter
Which physical quantity has the unit volt-meter?
Electric flux.
What should the volt meter gauge read in a 1993 jeep yj?
what should the volt meter guage read in my '93 Jeep Wrangler 13.5 to 14.2?
Can you use an Amp meter to read energy with fruits and vegitables?
No but you can use a volt meter to read voltage.
How do you read 208 volts single phace circuit?
All voltage reading are usually read with a volt meter. This volt meter can be a hand held unit like electricians use.
Why a volt meter reads around 20VA on a socket when the switch is off that makes some fluorescent lamps in the house to flash?
Please re-phrase your question. A volt meter does not read volt amps.
What is the capacity of a car battery?
It is a 12 volt battery. Fully charged it will read 12.6 volts with a digital volt meter.
Is starting current of a AC Motor measured as RMS or PEAK?
IT DEPENDS WHAT MEASURING INSTRUMENT YOU ARE USING. RMS - IF USING THE CLAMP AMMETER OR PANEL METER OSCILLOSCOPE - BOTH CAN BE READ
What should the volt meter read in 1995 Chevrolet cheyenne pickup be?
14 volts
Why thermocouple voltmeter is connected across shunt resistance and electronic voltmeter across capacitor?
There is no such a thing as a thermocouple volt meter. A analogue or digital millivolt meter or volt meter is connected across a shunt or parallel with the shunt to measure the current through the resistor. Say the resistor value = 1 Ohm, then by using the Ohm law formula to calculate the current, say the voltage (voltage drop), read on the volt meter is 1.5 Volt that is R*V = A that is, 1Ω*1.5V = 1.5 Amp. Any type of DC volt meter, analogue or digital can be used to measure the voltage across a capacitor if the value of the capacitor is large enough that reading will be true RMS. as long as the supply current (EMF Power) are larger than the load current.
When a voltmeter is connected to a resistor what will it read?
If you place an OHM meter across a resistor, it will read resistance. An OHM meter set to read voltage will read any voltage present. So, if you pick up a resistor, connect it to a volt meter, in theory, no voltage will be present. Unless you're feeding some sort of electricity through it. I'm certainly not an electrical engineer, I do however use a volt/ohm meter occasionally. A volt/ohm meter is a dual/multi purpose piece of equipment.
What is unit of measurement of RMS?
how many meter are there in 450 running meter
Why does the phase t neutral read 69 volts on a 120 volt circuit?
Assuming you are using the correct meter with true RMS you most likely have a loose neutral somewhere in the circuit. Try to measure from hot to ground. If this measures 120V then you most likely have a loose neutral somewhere.
How to retrieve DTC's for 1995 Mirage s?
You need either a code scanner or a analog volt meter. With the scanner, you just need to read the codes. WIth the volt meter, you'll need a chiltons or hanes manual to see where to hook it up.
