why we are using the ac supply in domestic purpose why
don't use dc supply

Answer / alif_motin
In power station ac power is generated and it is covenient
and easier to transmit and distribute ac power than dc power.
So most of the equipment are are designed for ac .So ac
supply in domestic purpose is mainly used .

Answer / lakshmi narayanan
ac supply is coventional to use and cheap.if use dc supply
instead ac supply it is comparatively dangerous.maintainence
cost is high.dc equipments are economically high and need
much proper maintainence

Answer / khushboo
in ac current flows in both cycle means synosoidal.but in
dc direct current flows which is hazadous.dc current is
harmful from safety point of view if it has to be used for
domestic purpose.for example if leakage current flows from
some applicance and if it is caught by human and if it is
dc than one can not not get rid of it as flow of current is
direct but if it is AC than one can get rid of it after
completion of cycle as it is alternate current so it is
less harmfull.

Answer / sunil m
Ac supply is cheap and get easily but Dc suplly is costly
most of the motors ,equipment etc is working in AC so now
its not posible to change .In dc thevoltage is low .
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 9 Yes | 6 No |
Answer / nil de
in ac supply u can easly avail the transformer action to increase or decrease voltage level but in dc u can't avail the transformer action.

Answer / arif
ac is easy to generate & in every cycle the value of voltage
is change while dc give constant voltage and it is generate
by ac & so it also costly than ac.

If more than rated DC voltage appears across trip coil of the breaker, what will happen? e.g. in 110V DC circuit system, if voltage across battery terminal showing 121 V
what happens to the speed of a DC series motor when series field winding is removed?
What is the Surge suppresor? Why using in a UDB's and How it works?
In power transmission using open belts or horizontal shafts it is preferable to have the slack side of the belt on the top because

How to calculate pitch, gauge of winding wire, and No. of turns for 30HP, 3 phase, 4 poles 50Hz, 380V induction motors
I have 12MW gas engine based power plant its running parallel with grid. my problem is When cpp run in island mode(without geb) that time geb transformer power factor is 0.2 lagging. When cpp run with parallel that time power factor is 0.94 lagging So how can i maintain power factor ofgeb transformer in island mode 0.9 lagging?
power 148kw i need exat cable size in 148 kw in 3phase what size of cable can i used.
we change the speed of the synchronous motor by incresing or decreasing a rotor resistance
