What does the term rectifier mean?

An electrical device that converts alternating current to direct current is known as a rectifier. An inverter is a device that converts direct current to alternating current.


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.


Which device is used to convert direct current into alternating current?

An inverter


Is power transformer is constant current device?

No, it has to be an alternating current in order to work


Which is the device that converts AC to DC?

A Rectifier converts Alternating current into Direct current


What is a device used to change voltage of an alternating current?

A transformer is a device used to change the voltage of an alternating current. It works on the principle of electromagnetic induction to increase (step-up) or decrease (step-down) the voltage level as needed. Transformers are commonly used in electrical power distribution systems to transmit electricity efficiently over long distances.


A device that increases the voltage of an alternating current is called?

That's called a transformer.


A device that increase the voltage of an alternating current is called a?

That's called a transformer.


Can alternative current be turned into direct current?

By "alternative" I presume you mean "alternating". Yes it can by using a device called a rectifier then some sort of bypass circuit to conduct the alternating current to ground, usually just a capacitor.


Name device which permits direct current and opposes the flow of alternating current?

A device that permits direct current (DC) and opposes the flow of alternating current (AC) is a rectifier. Rectifiers are electronic components that only allow current to flow in one direction, which is common for converting AC to DC in power supplies and other applications.


what is a frequency converter?

A frequency converter is a power electronic device. It transforms Direct current to Alternating current of desired frequency and magnitude.


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.
