Yes- ac or dc makes no difference to a regular light bulb. However, it must be the correct voltage. DC bulbs used on a car are 12 volt, and household AC current is 120-240 volts.

What is difference between ac and DC bulb?

we can check the dc with the help of tester give the reasonAnswerThere is no such thing as an 'AC light bulb' and a 'DC light bulb'. A light bulb doesn't care whether it is subjected to AC or to DC.


Why do you still use both ac and DC?

Because some appliances work with ac current and some with dc current.

How does a power inverter work?

Power inverters work as an electrical converter which allows a direct current to change into alternating current. This is the commonly known as a DC-AC power conversion. In short, inverters work the opposite as rectifiers that converts AC or alternating current into DC or direct current.


What are the two kinds electricity?

Perhaps you are referring to DC and AC? DC is direct current - current flows in a single direction. In AC (alternating current), the current regularly changes its direction.Perhaps you are referring to DC and AC? DC is direct current - current flows in a single direction.
