Question

Which are reasons why we use AC power as our main source of electricity? It travels farther than DC power due to the changing of directions of power It is more economical than DC power and more distant users do not suffer degradation of service Can be easily transformed using standard transformers, unlike DC power, allowing usage of extremely high voltages All of these are reasons
