No. Not the same. AC means Alternating Current which refers to a type of electrical flow (electrons). The word "Alternating" eaning that the current of electrons changes direction based on its frequency -- e.g., 60 times per second.

A/C means Air Conditioning and refers to a machine that cools the air.

What is the hvac?

HVAC stands for Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning. It refers to the technology and systems used to control the temperature, humidity, and air quality in indoor spaces. HVAC systems are commonly used in homes, offices, and other buildings to provide comfortable and healthy living or working environments. They can include components such as furnaces, air conditioners, heat pumps, ventilation systems, and thermostats. HVAC systems play a crucial role in maintaining a comfortable temperature and ensuring proper air circulation and filtration.


How does loudspeaker use electromagnet?

The exceptionally strong and steady magnetic field reacts with the alternating field created by the alternating current produced by the audio current flowing in what is known as the voice coil. The Voice Coil is physically attached to the cone that moves the air so you can hear the pressure wave that simulates the current wave-form.

How does ac works?

The acronym can refer to two things: Alternating current or Air Conditioning. Alternating Current: This is a type of electrical current that can flow back and forth, randomly changing directions. This type of current is used and generally more efficient in cities. This is because more energy is lost as more energy is moved in power lines. DC (direct current) is used instead over long distances. Air Conditioning: Is a process used to cool air and make it less humid for cooling people. Mainly using fans and cooling coils.


What are the 2 basic types of currents?

The main division is between alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC). AC is universal now for domestic and industrial supply, but DC used to be used in some places in the early part of last century. Automobiles use DC at 12V which is I think universal now. AC in domestic use can be at 50Hz (Europe and many other places) or 60Hz (North America), and can be at either 240V or 120V.
