dc is an abbreviation for direct current. The term dc current is sort of wrong it's a bit like saying something twice for no reason.
It might be better to say dc electricity rather than dc current.
AnswerIn electrical engineering, it is normal to use the terms, 'd.c. current' and 'd.c. voltage', because the abbreviation, 'd.c.' is considered to be an adjective. The same is true for 'a.c.', too.
What else can I help you with?
Current that doesnt reverse direction is called?
direct current
What is a current consisting of charges that flow only in one direction called?
A current consisting of charges that flow only in one direction is called direct current (DC). In DC, electrons flow continuously in one direction from the negative to the positive terminal of a power source.
How do you identify dc source is connected instead of battery?
"dc" is direct current which is what batteries use, whereas "ac" is alternating current, which is what your household receptacle uses.
What is a constant flow of electric charges called?
DC or direct current
What is called as Alternating current to Direct current converter?
A diode or rectifier converts AC to DC.
How does a device convert direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC)?
A device called an inverter is used to convert direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). The inverter switches the direction of the current flow at a rapid rate, creating an alternating current output from the direct current input.
What kind of electricity does an alternator make DC or AC?
It makes AC ( alternating current ) . That's why it's called an alternator. A DC generator would usually be called a dynamo.
What type of current involves charge flow i n a single direction?
That is called "DC" or "direct current".
Current in which electrons flow in the same direction is called?
It's alternating current
What IS AC DC?
AnswerThere is a hard rock band called AC/DC .In electrical jargon, AC is short for alternating current and DC is short for Direct current.
What is D in the DC generator?
DC = Direct Current, so D is direct.
What does DC stand for in DC tools?
Direct Current.
