What is the difference between in ac and dc powwer cable?

There is no difference in the cables. The only difference is the type of electrical power being transmitted. AC or DC applications use the same wires.


Is cable electricity different from battery electricity?

In general, cable electrons don't get along with battery electrons... electrons are electrons; it doesn't matter if they're in a cable, or a battery, they are the same. Batteries are always DC, but the electricity flowing through a cable does not necessarily have to be - it can be AC.


Minimum cable size for 12v dc?

It depends on the current requirement. Specify an application or describe what is being powered by the 12 V to get an answer.


What are DC Choppers?

Dc chopper is a static device which converts constant dc source to variable dc.


Why the ac supply is used in India not dc supply?

AC is pretty much the standard anywhere, not just in India. For distribution of electric power, AC has a clear advantage over DC in that it can easily be transformed to higher or lower voltages, and can be generated easily (since most generators lend themselves more directly to the generation of AC).In electricity distribution, DC plays a growing role in the past few decades because electronic circuitry can now support high-energy DC systems. These are sometimes used for very long haul electricity distribution (famously in South Africa and Russia); their advantage is that DC makes better use of the cable diameter (no skin effect).

Can you plug a dc appliance into a wall outlet?

With the proper cap configuration on the DC cable, yes it physically can be done. If there is a DC load connected to the end of the DC cable, the load would be destroyed by the application of AC voltage being applied to it. Why anyone would consider doing this type of procedure is anyone's guess.


What ia Standard of dc loop resistance of copper cable?

It depends on the length of th cable and the diameter of the copper cable used.


Can AC cable use for DC motor?

Yes, what matters is that the cable can take the correct voltage, and is thick enough to carry the required current, but ac or dc makes no difference.


Is it possible to short a 24 V dc cable with 110 V dc cable?

A shorted cable is one that has an unintentional connection between two of its conductors or to ground. If a cable is rated for 24VDC, then this is the maximum voltage that the conductors inside the cable should have between them. Same goes for a 110VDC rating. If you are asking if you can connect a 24VDC cable to a 110VDC cable, the the answer is yes, as long as you understand that you will still have the 24VDC limitations.


What is cable size for 48V DC 30 A?

The correct size of cable depends on the length of the cable run, as well as the voltage and current. Another consideration is what voltage loss is acceptable ? Safest answer would be to use a cable sizing table or online tool: http://www.solar-wind.co.uk/cable-sizing-DC-cables.html Hope that helps. G.

What is the primary purpose of DC and AC solar cable  How do I choose a good solar cable supplier?

The cables in the photovoltaic power station system can be divided into DC cables and AC cables. Due to the different use environments and uses, they can be divided into: 1. DC cables (1) The series cables between components. (2) Parallel cables between the strings and between the strings and the DC distribution box (combiner box). (3) The cable between the DC distribution box and the inverter. The above cables are all DC cables, which are laid out in many places and need to be protected from moisture, exposure to sunlight, cold, heat, and ultraviolet rays. In some special environments, they also need to be protected from chemicals such as acid and alkali. 2. AC cable (1) The connecting cable from the inverter to the step-up transformer. (2) The connecting cable from the step-up transformer to the power distribution device. (3) Connecting cables from the power distribution device to the power grid or users. This part of the cable is an AC load cable, and there are many laying in the indoor environment. It can be selected according to the general power cable selection requirements.
