Conversions of RMS voltage, peak voltage and peak-to-peak voltage. That are the used voltages. The expression "average" voltage is used for RMS voltage.
Scroll down to related links and seach for "RMS voltage, peak voltage and peak-to-peak voltage".
Answer'Average' is not the same as 'root mean square'. As the average value of a sinusoidal voltage is zero, you cannot convert it to a peak-to-peak value.

∙ 12y agoAre you asking what is meant by a 'peak voltage' in the context of voltage measurement in an alternating-current system? Or are you asking about voltage 'spikes'?
If the former, then a 'peak voltage' is the amplitude of an AC voltage waveform. As AC voltages are normally expressed in root-mean-square (rms) values, the amplitude (in the case of a sinusoidal voltage) is found by multiplying the rms value by 1.414. For example, a 120 V voltage has an amplitude of 170 V, and a 230 V voltage has an amplitude of 325 V
If the latter, then 'voltage spikes' are near-instantaneous increases in voltage impressed on normal voltage levels, due to line disturbances such as lightning strikes, switching, etc.

∙ 10y agoAs your electrical outlet's nominal voltage is a root-mean-square (rms) value where, for a sinusoidalwaveform, is 0.707 x Vpeak, you will need to manipulate this equation, to find Vpeak, and double the result for Vpeak-to-peak.

∙ 8y agoIn an ac cycle the voltage builds up to a peak voltage before the voltage decays and builds up to a negative peak.
The peak-to-peak voltage is double the peak voltage, and the rms voltage is the peak voltage divided by sqrt(2).

How do you convert peak voltage to peak-peak voltage?
Simply multiply the peak voltage to 2 and you will get the peak to peak voltage.
What is the peak-to-peak voltage in a circuit with an rms voltage of 120VAC?
ANSWER: The peak to peak voltage can be found by multiplying 120 v AC x 2.82= 339.41
What is a peak load voltage out of a bridge rectifier for a secondary voltage of 15 Vrms?
A: Peak voltage is RMS multiplied by a factor of 1.41
What is the effective voltage for a peak voltage of 311 volts?
When the peak voltage is 311, the RMS voltage is 220. (311 * square root (2))
Convert rms to peak to peak power?
P-P voltage = RMS voltage * 2 * sqrt (2)Here's an example: house voltage is 120VRMS, which is actually ~169 volts peak - neutral. double this will give peak to peak value.
How do you measure peak voltage using oscilloscope?
You measure the peak to peak voltage and divide by 2.
How do you convert peak voltage to peak-peak voltage?
Simply multiply the peak voltage to 2 and you will get the peak to peak voltage.

What is average voltage?
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.
How rms voltage related to peak voltage?
The average voltage is the rms voltage.Volts peak = volts RMS times 1.414Volts RMS = volts peak times 0.7071Use the link below to an RMS voltage, peak voltage and peak-to-peak voltage calculator.********************************The average voltage is not the r.m.s. voltage.The average voltage of a sine wave is 0.636 x the peak value. Conversely, peak voltage is 1.57 the mean or average.
What is difference between amplitude and peak value?
It is the highest value of the amplitude, called the peak value. Scroll down to related links and look at "RMS voltage, peak voltage and peak-to-peak voltage". Look at the figure in the middle below the headline "RMS voltage, peak voltage and peak-to-peak voltage".
What is the effective voltage for a peak voltage of 311 volts?
When the peak voltage is 311, the RMS voltage is 220. (311 * square root (2))
Are peak-to-peak and rms voltage measurements the same?
No, the peak-to-peak voltage is 2sqrt(2) times as much as the rms for a pure sine-wave.
Why is the peak voltage not exactly equal to the peak voltage of the alernating voltage and by how much it differ?
If you are referring to the voltage after the rectifiers in a powersupply, it is due to the voltage drop across the rectifiers.
What is the peak inverse voltage rating of diode in bridge rectifier?
2x the peak supply voltage!
How you can prove the Peak voltage?
Use an oscilloscope. That shows the voltage waveform and you can read the peak value.
