So, the RMS value, I RMS, of the function I(t) is the constant current that yields the same power dissipation as the time-averaged power dissipation of the current I(t). Average power can also be found using the same method that in the case of a time-varying voltage, V(t), with RMS value V RMS,
The neutral current can be determined by adding the three phase currents together as complex numbers and then converting from rectangular to polar co-ordinates. If the three-phase root mean square (RMS) currents are I L 1 {\displaystyle I_{L1}} , I L 2 {\displaystyle I_{L2}} , and I L 3 {\displaystyle I_{L3}} , the neutral RMS current is:
The RMS value of an alternating current is also known as its heating value, as it is a voltage which is equivalent to the direct current value that would be required to get the same heating effect. For example, if 120 V AC RMS is applied to a resistive heating element it would heat up by exactly the same amount as if 120 V DC were applied.
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 ...
A sine wave, over one cycle (360°). The dashed line represents the root mean square (RMS) value at (about 0.707). Below an AC waveform (with no DC component) is assumed. The RMS voltage is the square root of the mean over one cycle of the square of the instantaneous voltage.

Real power is the average of the instantaneous product of voltage and current and represents the capacity of the electricity for performing work. Apparent power is the product of root mean square (RMS) current and voltage. Due to energy stored in the load and returned to the source, or due to a non-linear load that distorts the wave shape of ...
I p is the peak current in amperes; V rms is the root-mean-square voltage in volts; I rms is the root-mean-square current in amperes; θ = θ v − θ i is the phase angle by which the voltage sine wave leads the current sine wave, or equivalently the phase angle by which the current sine wave lags the voltage sine wave; Power triangle: The ...
