Is the power line voltage available in your homes a DC or an AC voltage?
We deliver power on the power grid as an AC voltage. That's alternating current, and that's what is available in your home.
Why dc series motors cannot be used in home?
DC series motors run on DC power. Homes have AC power, not DC power. You could use DC motors in homes if you have a power supply or use a battery, but it is usually more cost effective to use an AC motor.
In a power station where dc is actually converted to ac while distribution?
The generated voltage in a power station is AC voltage, not DC. So, it is never converted to AC, because it is already AC.
What is the ratio of true power in an ac circuit to apparent power delivered to the circuit?
The ratio of true power (measured in watts) to apparent power (measured in volt-amperes) in an AC circuit is known as the power factor. It is a dimensionless number that ranges from 0 to 1 and indicates how effectively electrical power is being converted into useful work output. A power factor of 1 (or 100%) means all the power is being effectively converted to work, while a lower power factor indicates inefficiencies in the system. The relationship can be expressed mathematically as: Power Factor (PF) = True Power (P) / Apparent Power (S).
Can you convert an ac fridge to dc?
My husband said without hesitation AC!! DC power comes from batteries, AC power comes from electricity((generating power))....

What is the formula for rectification efficiency for full wave bridge rectifier?
It is defined as dc power delivered to the load to the ac input power from secondary transformer
What are common efficiencies for transformers?
Transformer utilization factor is the ration of power delivered to the load and ac rating of the transformer secondary.
Is home elect ac currant?
DC current is not used in home wiring. It may be used to power a door bell, alarm system, under counter lights, etc, that uses a transformer powered by AC that converts the power to DC. Other than that homes are wired for AC current only.
What does a negative active power means?
Let see an example. The active power absorbed by an AC motor is used to produce mechanical power delivered on the output shaft. If the mechanical power is negative (the motor is pushed to work as a brake) the active power 'absorbed' is also negative. The motor converts the mechanical power in active electrical power delivered in the electrical network. Any AC generator is supplied with negative active power, or it deliver to the network positive active power.
Can you explain the importance of AC power in electrical systems?
AC power, or alternating current power, is important in electrical systems because it allows for the efficient transmission of electricity over long distances. AC power can be easily converted to different voltage levels, making it versatile for various applications. Additionally, AC power is safer and more reliable than DC power for powering homes, businesses, and industries.
How does AC power work in electrical systems?
AC power, or alternating current power, works in electrical systems by constantly changing direction, flowing back and forth in a circuit. This flow of electricity is generated by power plants and transmitted through power lines to homes and businesses. AC power allows for efficient distribution of electricity over long distances and is used to power a wide range of devices and appliances.
What is the difference between inverter and Transformer?
An inverter changes DC power (like isgenerated from a solar panel) to AC to match the same type of power we get from the power company. A transformer reduces the power from a more powerful ACsource like a transmission lineto a lower AC source like the power to be used to be used in homes.

Does a computer use AC or dc power?
Both, in a way. Electronic components, including moth components inside the computer, need DC. However, since the power available in homes or offices is AC, a computer is designed to work with this. A computer has a power supply that internally converts AC to DC.
