RMS is just as statistical method, which is useful for making sense of any time-variant function.
The square root of the square of power is just as much related to power as the square root of the square of voltage is related to voltage (NOT power).
Judging from this response and the one to Randall, I suspect it might be a good idea for you to review your EE texts. RMS is meaningless in the context of power. Sure you can do the calculation, but what does it get you? With current or voltage, RMS derives the equivalent DC value. Can you explain what you'd obtain by calculating RMS power? -- Use OpenOffice.org http://www.openoffice.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
