Voltage reading using a multimeter

AI Thread Summary
The voltage reading using a multimeter in Multisim workbench software is believed to be RMS, similar to a standard voltmeter. Users can connect a virtual oscilloscope to verify this measurement. The discussion emphasizes the importance of understanding whether the readings reflect average, peak, or RMS values. Clarification on these terms is essential for accurate interpretation of voltage in simulations. Overall, confirming voltage readings with additional tools like an oscilloscope is recommended for accuracy.

I believe it's RMS (just like a regular voltmeter). I also believe that you can hook up a virtual oscilloscope to confirm!

EDIT: And welcome to PhysicsForums!
 


Thanks a lot!:)
