AC voltage is a type of electrical current where the voltage periodically changes direction. It is commonly used in household power supplies and electrical grids due to its efficiency in long-distance transmission.
Frequency: The number of cycles per second in an alternating current, measured in Hertz (Hz).
Impedance: A measure of opposition to AC current flow in a circuit, combining resistance and reactance.
Phasor Diagram: A graphical representation of the magnitude and phase angle of sinusoidal functions related to AC circuits.
