average voltage meaning

[Electronics]
Abbreviation, _Eavg. The average value of ac voltage in a circuit. Taking polarity into account, this value is zero for a pure sine wave. For other waveforms, it can vary. When polarity is not considered, the sine-wave value of _Eavg is equal to 0.637 times _Epk, the peak value of voltage.
