Of course, when we convert dc to ac, we need to feed an electronic circuit using Transformers that have a range efficiency between 80 to 90, depends on the iron composition of the frame.

What AC actually means in AC adapter?

Alternating Current ... like in most households.The adapter is either converting DC to AC or vice versa.


What is VSI fullform in power electronics?

VSI - Voltage Source Inverter. This is a referred to a type of converter topology that converts electrical power either from DC/AC to DC/AC depending on applications and with a intermediatory power stage with high frequency signals. Usually, this comprises a H-bridge driving some sort of resonant network and a rectifier converting the high frequency AC from the resonant network back to DC.


What is the Working of online ups?

Online UPS on the other hand uses an Inverter which always on to give sine wave AC in the output socket. The incoming AC is first converted into DC by a transformer to charge the battery as well as to give power to the inverter transformer. The inverter transformer converts the DC to AC continuously to power the load. If power fails, the battery backup circuit switches on and takes the load. Online UPS is more efficient than the Offline UPS and uses a "Constant duty Inverter". It also has a "Static bypass" system that transfers the load to the AC power if the inverter system fails. The advantage of the Online UPS is that, it clean up the AC waveform by converting it into DC then reconverting this DC to fresh AC.


What is the cost for an AC to DC power converter?

The cost for an AC to DC power converter is usually around $15-$20. You can purchase an AC to DC Power converter online at the Amazon website. Once on the page, type "AC to DC Power Converter" into the search field at the top of the page and press enter to bring up the products.


Why is AC better than DC?

Is it feasible that a person can get an electrical shock in flight as a result of the aircraft converting to AC power?

Converting an aircraft to AC power if it was previously on DC is a lengthy procedur that would required the aircraft to be on the ground and partially dismantled. Major engineering conversions are never attempted while an aircraft is in flight.


What supplies power to a computer?

The "power supply" supplies power to a computer. A computer's power supply is a "switchmode power supply" responsible for converting the AC voltage from the wall into several DC output voltages.


What are the switched and unswitched AC plugs on my receiver?

Switched power means the AC power will be lost if the receiver is on standby. In unswitched, the power will be supplied even if the receiver is on standby. Regards, Raghu
