This is DC, you need to talk to someone who knows what they are doing,unless
you get a kit that has everything already to go. Because everything must be matched
from the lights, wire, distance, how many, transformer. Lowes has a few ok kits.
If you where looking at say seagull or hinkley, lighting, which are not kits and are expensive, the system must be designed, and your looking at 300.00-600.00
just for a transformer.
I install custom outdoor landscape lighting.
DC is a very safe way to go,, over hard wired lighting for landscaping.
The difference AC and DC grounding is that AC is alternate current and DC is direct current. Grounding for both AC and DC is the same.
AC means alternating current DC means direct current there is no polarity reversal
DC Motor works on DC source and AC motor works on AC source
The main target of AC AND DC IS TO GIVE SUUPLY TO CONUMERS WERE AS AC CURRENT IS CHEAPER COMPARING WITH DC
A "Rectifier" converts AC current to pulsating DC current.
Mostly DC, but there is high frequency AC too.
Electricity supply services for lighting and other electrial appliances used in homes are alternating current (ac).
Depends on the application. Lights in your house are in parallel with AC and lights in your car are in parallel with DC.
In home electronics, it changes 120volt AC electricity into (usually) 12volt or less DC electricity for use in small electronic items that do not need high voltage to operate.
A typical AC waveform is symmetrical about a zero crossing point. You can bias the AC with DC such that the AC waveform is symmetrical about the DC voltage.
formula for ac to dc
Well, asking this is like how you prefer to die by jumping into a well or by cutting your wrist. The answer lies in the wave patterns of AC and DC In AC the waveform reaches to zero in every cycle, so there is a chance that you can survive AC On the other hand, in DC there is no such thing as frequency so there is no zero in the waveforms. So, if you get in direct contact with DC, be prepared to meet GOD ponypomp-- In the real world,say your talking landscape lighting, 120v landscape lights could fail due to degradation to the wires and kill you, if you used 12v-22v DC lighting and it fails, nothing will happen and is safer then AC. You would die faster from your house electric then you would from a car battery. So in the real world, DC products are safer then AC. ...assuming voltage is less. If AC voltage is less than or equal to DC, it could be a toss up. The real killer is the voltage level, and how much current backs that voltage up (ie the power that can be delivered). A taser is very high voltage, but it will not kill (or isn't supposed to) because of the very low current. There are such things as Very high voltage DC lines used to transfer power, and DC tie stations connecting the three US grids (Eastern, Western, and Texas). DC here is extremely dangerous because of the voltage level, and the massive amount of power available. ponypomp- Sorry,sounded kind of sarcastic. It has to do with amperage, for the most part amps kill and not voltage. lightning, is DC,and a lot of people have lived being hit by thousands of DC volts, people have died from 120v house current, there are so many factors with resistance and amps the explanation would fill several pages.. I added to your comment,because of the fact that for the home there are a lot of DC products VS AC products,and the dc products are a lot safer then the AC products. I did not want people thinking they should go with AC when DC is safer, speaking directly about home products.
The difference AC and DC grounding is that AC is alternate current and DC is direct current. Grounding for both AC and DC is the same.
It should work just fine, first you jack up your car voltage to 120 AC, and then drop it to 29.5 volts DC Except for losses, it should be draining about 44 watts, or about 3 and 2/3 amps from your battery
Ac/dc
AC/DC are from Sydney, Australia.
AC means alternating current DC means direct current there is no polarity reversal
