What does 12v AC DC mean?
AC means Alternating Current and DC means Direct Current. For example: a 12V AC power supply has an alternating voltage (which will make an alternating current flow). An electrical signal is a voltage or current which conveys information, usually it means a voltage.
What is meant by alternating current?
Definition: Alternating Current (AC) is a type of electrical current, in which the direction of the flow of electrons switches back and forth at regular intervals or cycles. Current flowing in power lines and normal household electricity that comes from a wall outlet is alternating current.
Why DC current is not used in homes?
Large transformers are used to run transmission lines at high voltages in order to keep losses to a minimum. But high voltage is dangerous, particularly to life, so bringing it into a house would not be an acceptable risk. DC arcs do not “quench” as easily (because voltage does not go through zero).
Which is more dangerous AC or DC?
A.C. is said to be four to five times more dangerous than D.C. For one thing, A.C. causes more severe muscular contractions. The frequency of the AC has a lot to do with the effect on the human body. Unfortunately, 60 cycles is in the most harmful range. At this frequency, as little as 25 volts can kill.
Are batteries AC or DC?
Batteries only supply DC voltage and wall plugs only supply AC voltage.
