Peak-to-Peak Value The peak-to-peak value is measured from the maximum positive
value to the maximum negative value of a cycle. If the peak
voltage is 650 volts, the peak-to-peak voltage is 1300 volts.
Instantaneous Value The instantaneous value is the value at any one particular time
along a sine wave. Instantaneous voltage is equal to the peak
voltage times the sine of the angle of the generator armature.
The sine value is obtained from trigonometric tables. The
following table shows a few angles and their sine value.
The instantaneous voltage at 150° of a sine wave with a peak
voltage of 650 volts, for example, is 325 volts (650 x 0.5).
Angle Sin θ Angle Sin θ
30° 0.5 210° -0.5
60° 0.866 240° -0.866
90° 1 270° -1
120° 0.866 300° -0.866
150° 0.5 330° -0.5
180° 0 360° 0
