There are two primary methods:

Number one, use a DC motor to drive an AC generator.

Number two use an inverter, which uses integrated circuits, power transistors and a transformer to generate AC currrent.

What AC actually means in AC adapter?

Alternating Current ... like in most households.The adapter is either converting DC to AC or vice versa.


What is method for converting dc into ac supply?

An 'inverter' takes direct current (DC) input from a battery and outputs alternating current (AC). This means that an electric drill that should be plugged into the mains, can be run from the inverter.

What device converts dc current to ac current?

A "Rectifier" converts AC current to pulsating DC current.


What is the sign for ac and DC current?

AC means alternating current DC means direct current there is no polarity reversal


How can you convert a DC generator into an ac generator?

Converting D/C into A/C is very expensive. You can use inverters to switch the direction of the current but you would probably be better off to replace your DC generator with an AC generator and if you need both AC and DC power then use a rectifier (inexpensive when compared to inverters) to convert the AC to a DC current.

Which apparatus changes a direct current to alternating current?

An inverter is the apparatus that changes direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). It does this by converting the fixed voltage and direction of DC electricity into an oscillating voltage and alternating direction of AC electricity.


What important system consisting of diodes in converting ac to dc?

Halfwave or fullwave or polyphase AC to DC?


What is the difference between ac and dc grounding?

The difference AC and DC grounding is that AC is alternate current and DC is direct current. Grounding for both AC and DC is the same.


Difference between AC and DC generator?

The major difference between an AC generator and a DC generatoris that the DC generator requires a mechanism to provide a DC output. This can be done mechanically with a commutator or electronically with a rectifier. Internally, all generators produce an alternating voltage. Allgeneratorsrequire a magnetic field.


What changes alternating current into direct current?

Yes but is somewhat complicated to get good level DC from an AC source.================================Answer #1.5 :All electronic devices operate on DC ... radios, TVs, computers, stereos, etc.If the device plugs into the wall outlet for power to operate, then the AC fromthe wall outlet is used to produce DC internally to run the device.
