Hi
I don't know whether this is a silly question or not, but Ill ask it anyway!
Why are the overhead power lines and our mains power AC?
I was told when I was in high school that it was more efficient. To do so.
Is it because the average current/voltage is 0?
Or is more complex involving inductance and resistance?
