Hello Joe,
Welcome to AAC!
Regardless of your age and your level of education there was no one simple answer.
The answer was: It depends.
We were waiting for you, the thread starter (TS) to come back and tell us more about what you were measuring with what instrument.
For example, what was the brand and model number of your test meter?
What was the range setting on the test meter?
What was the frequency of the AC signal?
What was the shape of the AC signal?
All of the above can affect the outcome of the reading.
None of the above responses from AAC members were intended to be snarky.
Live and learn.
