than DC, but it allowed it to do so with smaller energy losses as a higher voltage would run on lower current. This allowed for lighter conductors, and fewer power stations with greater distances between, giving the use of AC to supply electricity to cities economic advantages. Because AC generators do not require a commutator, they are also more reliable, requiring less maintenance than DC generators. a a a 4 HSC PHYSICS > MOTORS AND GENERATORS| AC & DC ” Bibliography Generators for…
