The kind of electricity from the power plant is called?
There are only two kinds of electricity, direct current and alternating current. All power plants now produce alternating current
What type of electric current does a power plant generate for use in your home?
generally power plants produce ALTERNATING CURRENT,because after producing the current the are sent to substations where they are stepped up or stepped down.so a transformer is mainly used over there.for a transformer we cant supply direct current.we should supply only alternating current.so they only produce alternating current................... 4RM PRAJITH
Does a generator produce direct current or alternating current?
A generator produces an alternating current, still it gives d.c. output because we use slip-rings at the terminals of actual output of generator.
How does an ac power source differ from a dc power source?
AC power sources are the adapter power sources. DC power sources are the direct power sources. DC stands for direct current, meaning it is a direct source of energy., and AC stands for alternating current, which means it is a secondary source of power.
Why do electric company generators produce alternating current?
Because alternating current can be run through a transformer to step up or down the voltage. High voltage current incurs lower losses in transmission.
Why are currents changing direction?
Alternating current is generated by a rotating generator which moves in such a way as to produce that kind of current.
What is current that keeps changing direction?
AC, or alternating current.AC, or alternating current.AC, or alternating current.AC, or alternating current.
Does a dry cell battery produce alternating current or direct current?
directA dry cell battery produces DC.
What is the difference between the welding current produced by alternator and the one produced by a generators?
Alternators produce Direct Current, Generators produce Alternating Current. Todays' cars have Alternators to charge the batteries.
Why ac is not uses in rotor of alternators?
This question is not clear since alternators produce alternating current.
What happens when a coil is rotated between two magnets?
The coil will produce an alternating electric current.
What happens if a coil is rotated between two magnets?
The coil will produce an alternating electric current.
