How to Convert RMS Watts (Wrms) to Watt Peak (Wp)

To convert RMS Watts (Wrms) to Watt Peak (Wp), use the formula:

The relationship between RMS watts (Wrms) and watt peak (Wp) can be expressed as:

Wp = Wrms × √2

or approximately:

Wp ≈ Wrms × 1.414

If you have an RMS measurement of 100 Wrms, the calculation would be:

Wp = 100 Wrms × √2 ≈ 141.42 Wp

RMS watts (W_rms) represent the effective value of power in an AC circuit. Learn more about the RMS formula.

Watt peak (Wp) represents the maximum power output of a device under ideal conditions.

Formula: W_p = W_rms × √2 or approximately: W_p ≈ W_rms × 1.414
