Alternating Current (AC) vs Direct Current (DC)

Alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) are two different types of electricity used for electrical transmission. AC is a waveform in which the direction of the current changes continuously; it is often used in power grids. DC is a current with a constant direction; it is ideal for batteries and electronic devices. AC is more efficient over long distances, while DC provides stable power.
