In `A.C` source peak value of `A.C` is the maximum value of current in either direction of the cycle. Root moon square `(RMS)` is also defined as the direct current which produces the same heating effect in a resistors as the actual `A.C`
`A.C` mesuring instrument measures its

A

rms value

B

Peak value

C

Average value

D

Square of current

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`AC` ammeters are based on heating heat effect of current. Heat produced on `RMS` current. Hence `AC` measuring instrument measures it rms value.
