What is AC/DC systems?

AC/DC systems refer to electrical systems that involve both Alternating Current (AC) and Direct Current (DC) electricity. Many electronic devices require DC power, but AC is the standard for power transmission due to its efficiency over long distances. AC/DC systems often involve converting AC power from the grid to DC power for devices like computers, TVs, and phone chargers using rectifiers and power supplies. They also include systems where DC power (e.g., from batteries or solar panels) is converted to AC power using inverters for use in standard AC electrical grids or appliances.
