Peak to peak. The DC voltage is also peak voltage of the secondary. That way
you can compare apple with apples!
Of course, you should measure it with a scope, or some peak reading, AC
coupled detector.

REPLY:

Peak to peak, RMS or what?

###  RMS.    Ripple measurements and calcs have been RMS  since day 1. If
you want to do it in peak... or peak to peak.. that's fine too.  Just don't
trycomparing peak to peak..... to RMS. later... Jim  VE7RF
