DC is direct current, current travels in one direction. AC is alternating current, current changes direction twice per cycle. 60 Hertz would change direction 120 times per second.

What device converts dc current to ac current?
A "Rectifier" converts AC current to pulsating DC current.
What is the sign for ac and DC current?
AC means alternating current DC means direct current there is no polarity reversal
What is the difference between ac and dc grounding?
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.
Which is the device that converts AC to DC?
A Rectifier converts Alternating current into Direct current
Is ac or DC current easier to interrupt?
dc
Is a AC adapter the same as a charger?
An ac adapter converts ac current into dc current through a rectifier, and a battery charger outputs dc current at an adjustable powerful charging rate and also converts ac current to dc current to charge different sizes of batteries.
What device converts dc current to ac current?
A "Rectifier" converts AC current to pulsating DC current.
What are the different modes of electricity?
ac and dc (alternating current and direct current)
What are the different types of eneregy?
direct current(dc), alternating current(ac)
What is the sign for ac and DC current?
AC means alternating current DC means direct current there is no polarity reversal
How are is a transformer and a rectifier different?
A transformer changes the VOLTAGE of AC current (AC to AC). A rectifier changes AC to DC.
What is the difference between ac and dc grounding?
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.
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.
