DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AC & DC
AC (Alternating Current)
Direction changes periodically
Magnitude varies with time
Produced by generators
Used for power supply
Frequency ≠ 0
DC (Direct Current)
Flows in one direction
Magnitude remains constant
Produced by cells & batteries
Used in electronic devices
Frequency = 0
Additional Points
AC is easier to transmit.
DC is used in batteries.
AC can be converted to DC.
DC cannot be transmitted over long distances easily.
