The household supply in the UK is 240 V and is AC (alternate current).
Generators do not store energy they produce energy. A storage device for DC voltage is a battery. AC voltage can not be stored.
Some devices operate on AC and others on DC. Generally, anything that uses mains electricity (120V US, 240V UK) is using AC electricity and things that use batteries or are rechargable like cell phones, ipods, personal CD, use DC electricity.

the work is done in the power supply box (the metal box part in the computer, the one you plug the power cord into). It converts AC to DC via transformers, rectifiers, and voltage regulators and has extra circuitry in there to make sure that the voltage doesn't ripple (with the changes in the AC voltage) or spike (e.g., when you first turn it on)
We deliver power on the power grid as an AC voltage. That's alternating current, and that's what is available in your home.
In the United States, 110-120/240 VAC is the standard.

No, the battery is DC voltage and your home runs on AC.
because in dc current is direct current and it continously varies. so it may be possible that some instrument may be damaged. so to avoid this first we have to convert dc to ac. Actually in our home dc is provided.suppose you want to charge your mobile than you have to convert first dc current to ac current.AnswerAll homes are supplied with AC voltage. The reason for this is that the magnitude of an AC voltage is easily changed using a transformer, and it is easily changed into DC using a rectifier. Changing the voltage level of DC is far more complicated, as is changing it to AC.
yes it is possible.we can convert dc into ac using inverter.this inverter is diff than our home inverter or using commutator.
AC welders use electric voltage directly from an alternating current outlet.
No. Lightning is a DC discharge of short duration at a very high voltage. To be useful for commercial production it has to be a continuousness alternating current (AC) supply of voltage. Only AC supplies can be manipulated to be boosted to a higher voltage for transmission and then lowered for use by transformation to lower home voltages.
You cannot power a home with car batteries. Batteries are DC voltage. Your home operates on AC voltage. You could use a converter but the number of batteries required to operate an average home would be enormous.

ummmmm... put it in series.
