No, that's Alternating Current.
An electric current that rapidly changes directions is known as an alternating current (AC). This type of current flows back and forth in a circuit, changing direction at a specific frequency, such as 60 Hz in many parts of the world. This is in contrast to direct current (DC), which flows in only one direction.
AC stands for alternating current and means that the current changes directions, flipping repeatedly from positive to negative and back again.DC means direct current, the current only flows in one direction and does not change polarity.
DC (direct current).
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.

A direct current involves change of flow in a single direction. DC (direct current), at least on the macro scale. On the atomic scale, they seem to wander all over the place between atoms, and the average movement is what we measure as current.
Alternating current changes direction on a set frequency such as 50 Hz, 60 Hz or 400 Hz. Direct current always flows in one direction.
Direct current (DC) this is produced by for example batteries. AC alternating current changes direction on a cyclical basis and is used in power distribution and what "comes out" of the power sockets in the home.
Direct current (DC) is the term used to refer to current that flows in one direction and does not reverse its direction. This is in contrast to alternating current (AC), which changes direction periodically.
Alternating Current which reverses its direction regularly at certain intervals Direct Current flowing continuously in one direction only
No, the continuous flow of charge in a circuit is called electric current. Direct current (DC) refers to the flow of electric charge in a single direction, whereas alternating current (AC) changes direction periodically.
An inverter is the apparatus that changes direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). It does this by converting the fixed voltage and direction of DC electricity into an oscillating voltage and alternating direction of AC electricity.
Direct current (DC) is the type of current that flows in one direction continuously. This is in contrast to alternating current (AC), which changes direction periodically. Examples of devices that operate using DC include batteries and solar cells.
