  2. Root mean square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_mean_square

    Physical scientists often use the term root mean square as a synonym for standard deviation when it can be assumed the input signal has zero mean, that is, referring to the square root of the mean squared deviation of a signal from a given baseline or fit. [8] [9] This is useful for electrical engineers in calculating the "AC only" RMS of a signal.

    Continuous charge distribution. The volume charge density ρ is the amount of charge per unit volume (cube), surface charge density σ is amount per unit surface area (circle) with outward unit normal nĚ‚, d is the dipole moment between two point charges, the volume density of these is the polarization density P.

    root mean square: RMS in general is a statistical technique to define a representative value for a group of data points. With regard to surface roughness, it means that the heights of the individual microscopic peaks and valleys shall be averaged together via RMS to yield a measurement of roughness. See also herein f as a finish mark. RT or R/T

    root mean square The root mean square value of a waveform is the DC value that corresponds to equivalent heating value. rotary converter An electric machine that converts electric power between two forms, say, AC and DC or single-phase and three phase, or between two different frequencies of AC (the latter two can be performed by the same machine).

  6. Electronic symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_symbol

    An electronic symbol is a pictogram used to represent various electrical and electronic devices or functions, such as wires, batteries, resistors, and transistors, in a schematic diagram of an electrical or electronic circuit. These symbols are largely standardized internationally today, but may vary from country to country, or engineering ...

  7. Form factor (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Form_factor_(electronics)

    In electronics and electrical engineering, the form factor of an alternating current waveform (signal) is the ratio of the RMS (root mean square) value to the average value (mathematical mean of absolute values of all points on the waveform). [1] It identifies the ratio of the direct current of equal power relative to the given alternating ...

    Reference should be made to codes and standards. For example, IEC 60027, and Letter Symbols in Electrical Technology. Here are tables of widely accepted symbols. They are meant to be a guideline: Using the same symbols for the same things in different articles will increase their consistency, making them easier to understand and to improve.

  9. True RMS converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True_RMS_converter

    True RMS provides a more correct value that is proportional to the square root of the average of the square of the curve, and not to the average of the absolute value. For any given waveform , the ratio of these two averages is constant and, as most measurements are made on what are (nominally) sine waves, the correction factor assumes this ...
