Question

peak factor is the ratio 0f​

Answer 1

Peak factor:

• The Peak Factor is the ratio of an alternating quantity's maximum value to its R.M.S value.

• Voltage or current may be the alternating values.

• The peak, crest, or amplitude of the voltage or current is the greatest value.

• It is stated mathematically as:

Peak factor = Im/Ir.m.s a or Em/Er.m.s

• Where Im and Em are the current and voltage maximum values, respectively, and Ir.ms and Er.ms are the alternating current and voltage roots mean square values, respectively.
