About
It is commonly used in homes and businesses to power devices and appliances. AC power is characterized by its alternating waveform, where the direction of current flow constantly reverses in a cyclical manner. The two main forms of AC power are single-phase and three-phase, with three-phase being more commonly used in industrial settings. AC power offers several advantages over direct current (DC) power, including the ability to be easily transformed to different voltage levels and its efficient transmission over long distances. The Wikipedia page on AC power provides a comprehensive overview of the topic, including the history, generation, transmission, and distribution of AC power, as well as its utilization in different applications and the various standards and systems associated with it.
