One of the ways you can detect the presence of a magnetic field is by the use of a magnetic proximity sensor. They are non-contact proximity devices that are used to detect magnetic objects.

How do you find magnetic field?

One of the easiest ways to detect a magnetic field is with a length of conductive material attached to a voltage meter. The presence of a magnetic field causes an electrical current to flow through the conductor, thus causing a spike on the meter.

Does ac current produce magnetic field?

Yes; any current produces a magnetic field, an AC current will produce an alternating magnetic field. If the current (and therefore the magnetic field) changes quickly, you may not be able to detect it with a compass needle, for example.
