Abstract Of The Disclosure A measuring circuit for obtaining a mean square value of a power distribution line parameter and a process for obtaining a mean square value is disclosed. The mea- suring circuit and process exploit my discovery that an accurate measurement of the mean square may be closely ap- proximated by sampling the power parameter an odd number of times greater than one during the power parameter cycle. When the power parameter is sampled an odd number of times (N) during its cycle aliasing errors due to the existence of odd harmonics above the Nyquist Frequency are minimized. As a result, the mean of the most recent N sample values squared is very nearly equal to the true mean square value which would be produced by a continuous integration of the square of the power parameter during its period divided by the period. By sampling at a rela- tively low frequency, errors and circuit complexity are reduced, and the speed with which an acceptable mean square value is obtained is increased.
