It means that the value of the potential difference supplied between the terminals varies from 240V to 0v and then polarity reverses and voltage again rises upto 240V with time.Then again it falls to 0 and polarity changes back and it rises to 240V. This is one cycle and in India we have a frequency of 50Hz, i.e. it happens 50 times in 1 second
The voltage at any time can be calculated by V=240 sin(wT)
i.e. the voltage at any point is a sine or cosine function of time. w is the angular frequency
Some devices operate on AC and others on DC. Generally, anything that uses mains electricity (120V US, 240V UK) is using AC electricity and things that use batteries or are rechargable like cell phones, ipods, personal CD, use DC electricity.
There are no adptors to plug a 240v plug into a 120v receptacle. 240v requires two hot wores and a neutral and ground. 120v requires one hot wire, a neutral and a ground. If you have something that runs on 240/120 you need the cord and adaptor that came with the equipment as you willl need the wires to mate up accordingly.
Most televisions run on alternating current (AC) as it is the standard type of electricity supplied in homes. However, internally, TVs may convert AC to direct current (DC) for certain components to operate effectively.
no ! ................
AC (alternating current) electricity constantly changes direction and magnitude in a circuit, typically in a sine wave pattern. Static electricity, on the other hand, refers to an imbalance of electric charge on the surface of an object. AC electricity is used for powering devices and transmitting electricity over long distances, while static electricity is typically seen in everyday scenarios like when you rub a balloon on your hair.
240V AC 50HZ
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)..
By electricity pylons and cables
AC. is supplied through many ways like cables which gets electricity from the generators ( power stations ) i hope this answered your question ox.....
240v ac
Electricity produced at a generating station is typically alternating current (AC) electricity. This type of electricity is used for transmitting power over long distances and is the form of electricity supplied to homes and businesses.
The recommended AC breaker size for a 240V air conditioning unit is typically 20 amps.
240v
Some devices operate on AC and others on DC. Generally, anything that uses mains electricity (120V US, 240V UK) is using AC electricity and things that use batteries or are rechargable like cell phones, ipods, personal CD, use DC electricity.
what machine? example== I have 2 compressors, one uses 240v ac at 3 amps..... the other takes 240v ac at 32amps to put another way, one uses 720watts the other uses 7500watts (7680w)
PL mean Plug in - Light Bulb, the most comment application is CFL (Compact Fluorescent Lamp) which require assistance components to make it work or light up, different to incandescent light bulb, it can light up by just itself direct connect to our home electricity ac 100v to ac 240v.
The purpose of rectifiers is to change AC to DC.
