Both are equally as dangerous, as 250-volts is more than enough to exceed the .1 amp (100 milli-amps) needed to cause your heart to stop beating correctly. DC electrical current cause more sever burning than AC current does, but when the voltage is as high as 250 V, it will not matter much which type of current it is... both have the potential to kill you.

How can you increase 4.5v to 5.5v?
To increase a 4.5 VAC supply to 5.5 VAC, use a transformer. To increase a 4.5 VDC supply to 5.5 VDC, you'd need a boost converter.
How do you build a 120 vac - 24 vdc power supply?
i dont no
What is the voltage on cruise ships?
24 VDC or may be 110 VAC
What is the difference of VAC to Voltage?
Voltage is a general term. VAC & VDC are specific terms.
What will happen if 12 vdc bulb connected with 230 vac?
It will burn out violently, possibly exploding, sending broken glass everywhere.
What will happen if a 250 VDC coil is used to replace a 440 VDC coil?
The coil will burn out due to having almost double the voltage being applied to it.
Do wall phones use electricity?
Yes, between 40-50 vdc but up to 120 vac when it's ringing
Is vac and watt the same?
No, VAC is in direct reference to Voltage Alternating Current. This is much different than VDC which is in direct reference to Voltage Direct Current. The term volts refers to all voltages and does not specify what type it is.
At what voltage does electric train operate?
The transformer for n HO scale train has a primary voltage of 115 volts. There is a tap off for accessories that is 17 volts AC and a rectified DC voltage to apply to the track at 10 VDC at 1 amp.
What does 110 vac stand for?
This is the voltage you get out of household receptacles in North America. It stands for 110 volts alternating current. Contrast this with a car battery which is rated as 12 vdc or 12 volts direct current.
What is the need for power supplies?
A power supply is needed to transform the line voltage (e.g. 120 VAC 60 Hz, 240 VAC 50 Hz) to the voltage or voltages needed by the equipment (typically DC voltages between 3 VDC to 300 VDC) depending on the operational requirements of the equipment. Some old vacuum tube equipment needed low voltage AC to heat the vacuum tubes, the power supply then also had to provide these voltages (e.g. 6 VAC, 12 VAC). I have seen power supplies as simple as providing just one DC voltage to power supplies as complex as providing 20 to 30 different DC voltages, some positive and some negative with respect to ground.
What is Shova VDC's population?
Shova VDC's population is 7,279.
