Hello All, I need to calibrate the watt meters on my Titan, Omni VI+ and 253 Tuner. I have a Drake 2 kw PEP dummy load and a nice 200 mHz storage scope. In order to measure output, should I measure R

You may be confusing PEP with RMS and instantaneous voltage. If you have 1500 watts of power at any instant (fraction of a cycle) in a 50 ohm load, you have 274 volts, from P = V**2/R. So far so good

That was a long-winded way of saying that if you measure 387 volts peak into 50 ohms, you've got 1500 W RMS, assuming you've got a pure sine wave. (If you have visible harmonics, you've got real trou

I measure the peak to peak value using my scope. Then power equals E squared divided by R. This is good enough for "government work". Looking at it another way: 100 watts across 50.0 ohms produces 70

Bob, If you've got 274 volts sinewave peak-to-peak, that's .707 * (274 / 2) = 96.8 volts RMS. Across 50 ohms, my number is P = 96.8**2/50 = 187 Watts. RMS volts are what you want, and it's the voltag

Hi Barry, You want to use the RMS voltage value to calculate the power using Power equals Voltage squared divided by resistance. However measuring the peak to peak AC voltage with an oscilloscope is

This is wrong! Using peak voltage instead of RMS voltage of the peaks will result in a power miscalculation by a factor of two. Using Peak to Peak voltage instead of RMS voltage of the peaks would r

I'm really surprised at all the folks that missed the entire point. Look at the numbers again that I stated relating to 50 ohms: 70.710 volts x 1.414 amps = ~100 watts and 273.861 volts x 5.477 amps
