RMS Watts to Watt Peak Converter
How to Convert RMS Watts (Wrms) to Watt Peak (Wp)
To convert RMS Watts (Wrms) to Watt Peak (Wp), use the formula:
Wrms to Wp Calculation Formula (Sinusoidal Waveform)
The relationship between RMS watts (Wrms) and watt peak (Wp) can be expressed as:
Wp = Wrms × √2or approximately:
Wp ≈ Wrms × 1.414Example Calculation
If you have an RMS measurement of 100 Wrms, the calculation would be:
Wp = 100 Wrms × √2 ≈ 141.42 WpRMS Watts (Wrms)
RMS watts (Wrms) represent the effective value of power in an AC circuit. Learn more about the RMS formula.
Watt Peak (Wp)
Watt peak (Wp) represents the maximum power output of a device under ideal conditions.
