frequency of AC current in egyptis 50 c/s
ID1232132123's answer is: Albert Champion Doug's answer is: Alternating Current
The flow of current has nothing to do with magnetism. It will flow in any direction you want, depending on the applied voltage.

K = kilo = 1000's V = volts AC = alternating current So, 12 KVAC is 12,000 volts of alternating current

Electricity and magnetism are closely related. in 1802, Hans Christian Ørsted observed this by noting that electric current caused magnetism. In 1821, Michael Faraday, noted that electric currents could be induced by magnetic fields. In the 1860's, James Clerk Maxwell, enhanced this with his Electromagnetic Theory, and Maxwell's Equations, which unified the relationship between electricity, magnetism, and light into a common Electromagnetic Field. Several other physicists contributed to this knowledge.
A "generator" usually produces DC current. An "alternator" usually produces AC current. Older cars up to the 1960's used generators. Newer cars use alternators (simpler design) with diode rectifiers to convert the AC to DC. Batteries are DC. Some electronic circuitry (inverters) can change DC to AC.
