For triangular wave shape, the peak value of voltage is:
If the meter is calibrated in terms of RMS value, then the average value is given by:
The form factor of the bridge rectifier is 1.11
Calculation
The meter uses a full wave rectifier circuit which indicates the value of 3.33 V. The form factor for full wave rectified sinusoidal waveform is 1.11
Peak voltage,
