There is no such thing as phase in DC as phase requires AC.
To have two or more things out of phase requires them to be changing. Only AC does that. DC is steady state.
If you are talking about DC power line electricity, it is no longer used in homes or industry however many electric rail systems (e.g. trolley, highspeed trains) use DC electricity as DC motors have several advantages for motive power compared to AC motors. A few very long transmission power lines use DC electricity, but the DC is converted back to AC electricity before being distributed to customers. Certain industries (e.g. electroplating, aluminum refining) use DC internally, but they use large rectifiers to convert 3-phase AC to DC electricity when it enters the plant.If you are talking about electronic equipment (e.g. radios, computers, cell phones) these usually contain batteries. Everyone using battery powered electronics (or lighting, toys, cars, UPSs, etc.) uses DC electricity, because that is the way batteries provide electricity.Nearly everyone uses DC electricity, in battery powered devices.
Your home will have single phase power coming to it.
Phase converters are mostly used to convert single phase electricity into multiple phases or to convert multiple phases into one. They are usually installed to provide three phase electricity where an individual may not get it otherwise.
120 volt single phase rectifies to about 96 volt DC
Single phase alters from positive to negative at 50 (50hz) or 60 (60hz) times per minute. While in dc it does not vary but stays at a constant positive phase.
"2 phase" and "3 phase" are descriptions of AC supplies, which no DC generator can imitate, regardless of its power rating.
Nikola Tesla did not invent electricity, but he did come up with the poly phase AC system which the world runs on today. I believe he had the notion in his head long before a formal patent application was applied for. I believe 1887 he started work in his new laboratory and within a few months was able to apply patents on the entire poly phase system. (single phase, two phase, and three phase wiring)
Nikola Tesla invented the poly-phase A/C (alternating current) distribution system currently used worldwide.

ac:1) 1 phase 2) poly phase 3)universal
same as DC electricity
Three phase is ac
DC
the alternator produces a 3 phase AC electrical current that is "converted" into a single phase DC electrical current. This is done courtesy of the diode trio located in the regulator assembly of the alternator. typical output of an alternator is about 14 v DC and about .1 V AC.
Electricity or rather electric currant can be either AC or DC. AC means alternating current (as in that electricity that is supplied by the mains) and DC means direct current (as in that electricity supplied by a battery)..
DC: Direct Current
