Can you use ac supply for cable meggering?

No. The cable has capacitance, and an AC source would not be able to distinguish between capacitance and leakage.

What is difference between ACT armored cable and ac armored cable?

Southwire, a manufacturer of this type of cable defines ACT as a multiple conductor thermoplastic insulated cable with steel spiralled interlocking armour. The armour has the appearance of flexible conduit. AC cable is also known as BX cable. Common insulation materials thermoset and thermoplastic as used in AC cable. Type AC cable have different identifiers and insulation type. Type ACTHH has 194 degree (90 degree Celsius) thermoplastic insulation. Type ACTH has 167 degree (75 degree Celsius) thermoplastic insulation. Type AC has thermoset insulation. Type ACHH has 194 degree (90 degree Celsius) thermoset insulation.
