Electric Current - Direct and Alternating
Electric Current - Direct and Alternating
There are two types of electric current.
Direct current (d.c)
Direct current (d.c)
- The electric current flows in only one direction.
- Batteries and cells are sources of direct current.
Alternating current (a.c)
Alternating current (a.c)
- The electric current repeatedly changes direction.
- In the UK, the electricity from the plug sockets is a source of alternating current.
