Full Wave and Half Wave

The AC voltmeter using full-wave rectification has a sensitivity almost equal to the dc sensitivity, at 90%. This is twice the sensitivity of an AC voltmeter that uses half-wave rectification instead of full-wave. Full-wave rectification provides a more accurate reading of an AC voltage signal compared to half-wave rectification in an AC voltmeter.
