In Sweden you could get AC/DC appliances (radios, TV:s, etc), during the entire vacuum tube era, i.e. up to the beginning of the 70:s, when the last DC nets were decomissioned. Cities with trams tended to have DC nets longer, otherwise ASEA (with AC nets), lead the electrification of Sweden. There were pure DC mains powered radios (without rectifier tube). The Old Swedish mains plug was like the current Euro 220V plug, but without ground, i.e 2 pins, unporalized. On the DC radios (and DC nets), there were a little painted red dot on the + line. If you plugged in the radio the wrong way, you would get +110V on the chassis, which could be bad if you had e.g. uninulated antenna and ground connections. But most people knew things things well, everybody tinkered with radios in those days.. There were even AC/DC powered early elevators, with large rectifer systems. (When i read up on this, i was surprised for how long DC and various non-standard AC voltages were in use.... I suppose it was the same all over the world..)

this is the first video I've seen by this channel and already I love it

A story from a site (factory) which ran 230VDC lighting: As the filaments parted, a DC arc was set up and stabilised. That arc then ate its way: - down the support electrodes of the lamp, - into the base, - THROUGH the bulbholder, - 3-4 feet along the cable dangling from the ceiling, and was a few inches from the ceiling rose before someone managed to turn the power off. If it had managed to start chewing up the building cabling it could have been..... messy. One of the MAJOR advantages of AC over DC is that any AC arcs that happen are self-extinguishing every half-cycle, whilst DC ones are self-sustaining. This is why the AC and DC current ratings stamped on switches are so radically different - it's not about their current carrying capacity, it's about their current BREAKING capacity and ability to prevent/extinguish arc formation. IE: DC power distribution is a FIRE HAZARD and high current DC anything needs to be treated with great caution. This is why your car has so many fuses in it (and why those fuses have fairly hefty shrouds and/or springs in them despite it only being 12V) It's worth noting that at the same time as Edison was electrocuting stray dogs and the occasional elephant to show how dangerous AC was, his "Safe" DC system was killing around 8-10 electrical workers per week.

@usvalve

5 жыл бұрын

It shows how society has changed its values, that Edison could kill animals in a demo without provoking outcry and a boycott of his company! I lived in a house in England built in the 60s when there was a fashion for switchless 240V AC 13A sockets. I'm told by someone who lived in a 240V DC area of Wales that if you yanked the plug out without switching off first you could get an ElectroBOOM-style arc.

No, your car has so many fuses to compartmentalise the different systems to try and reduce the likelihood of one system damaging another. The large size is primarily due to the blades to provide good contact to allow a large current to pass. The actual fusing component is tiny. So no, it has nothing to do with arcing. Also, AC can sustain arcing as well. In order for the alternating current aspect to be useful, you need to have the voltage drop to below that required to sustain the arc for a long enough period for the plasma to dissipate. A good example of this is a fluorescent tube, which is a sustained arc, which runs just fine on AC. Yes, the AC does make it easier to stop the arc, but it isn't a magic cure-all. The main reason we are using the archaic AC system is because it was better to convert voltages at the time we were deciding if we should use AC or DC.

One of my biggest pet peeves is products which are exceptionally difficult to disassemble. I think companies should engineer their products to be easily take apart, whether it’s to service or conduct use-maintenance (simply cleaning/oil bearings and points or contact), or if the customer wants to take it apart out of pure curiosity, it should still stand. If I pay for a product, I should have that freedom. Companies ought to be mindful of the engineering and ergonomics of the inner workings. For example, I had a Shark mini vacuum that had accumulated a thick layer of dust and grime on the propeller. The DC motor also was drowning in dust. They had used “safety screws” on the propeller housing and the motor assembly. Why?? Cleaning the propeller shouldn’t void the warranty. If anything, the warranty would be voided WITHOUT proper cleaning and Maintenance.

Dear Mehdi, thank you very much for the very interesting video!

I don't know about now, but years back we had to use DC lighting in the MRI room. The magnetic resonance imaging room had no tolerance for taking images with the 60Hz sound in the room. Let me tell you that those incandescent bulbs took a lot of Wattage back then and really heated up those wires with DC running though them. We even needed a 30amp light switch. With AC, (if they still have the same theory.) the electrons do not move very much if at all. They just go back and forth. In DC they have to travel the entire wire, and that friction causes heat.

it would be nice if homes had inbuilt 12v/5v DC circuits for phones and other electronics, but kept 240v AC for high powered things like almost everything (probably) could be powered by that 240w USB PD standard, and transforming it at one point instead of in every device is surely more efficient

At least he isn't reviewing the top five kitchen utensils no one needs.

A few fun facts tho. First, yes you can use BLDC motors and fancy electronic DC/DC convertors, but that only became possible because of the inexpensive MOSFETs and IGBTs we only have since pretty recently in fact! Before 90ths every kind of "how to get 12v off-wall" question could only be solved with transformers (also gas-discharge-based stuff, but that was overcomplicated), with high-power stuff like pure transformer-based welders and the mentioned microwave ovens around for much longer (even today a pulse-transformer-based microwave is a pretty rare thing). Also regarding the dangers of the AC lines, even 100 VDC can be a hell to deal with because of the two facts: first, our own resistance matters, and varies greatly, say I can easily hold a 220 VAC live wire and finger-test the line if needed, though some easily get shocked even from 110 VAC lines, and that biting feel from the AC wires serves a nice purpose - it makes you toss the wires faster, and makes the shock itself a series of shorter shocks you only feel whenever the sinewave gets above your sensory threshold. With DC the chances of a person unwillingly clenching a wire are high, and I've actually seen a few cases of a bad trauma caused by relatively low-voltage exposures. And, the second downside. Arcing! Seen those nasty sparks when breaking a high-power AC load? An arc is being quenched because of the inconsistent voltage and current, and is mostly reduced to a small flash, now with DC loads things become wild, say I actually had a tinned wire being disconnected from a somewhat 100 W load at as low as 120 VDC making a few mm of an arc (as also the solder added one's oxides into the arc plasma, making it more conductive), which makes switching such a load a tricky task, also keep the fuses in mind, where the regular ones usually just never disconnect under higher DC loads. Oh, and that fried elephant case. The actual story was like that. As people were pretty tough to explain all those line losses, transformers, generators and synchronous or induction motors (as well as a non-100% risk decrease), Tesla's plan was to just show the edge-case of the AC safety with his coils, where even an Amp through your body won't really hurt (more of an advertisement, though). As a counterpart, the dangers of AC were also displayed by Edison in an exaggerated edge-case style, with the elephant electrocution being the most memorable one (the film is still online if anyone wants to know how to cook an elephant btw).

Nice video and explanation.

May I just clarify if the reason for not feeling a similar pain on touching 170V DC compared to 120V AC (peak voltage 170V) is mainly because of skin capacitance acting as a high pass filter?

Now I get the name of the channel. Well done. When I was younger (19 yrs old) and working at a park my boss didn't call before digging a trench even though there was a sign that said about 20 foot away "Call before you dig" in attempt to add another water line to the parks pool area. And so he started a trench and after 15 feet BAM trench fills with water; we thought he hit "only" a water line. So he told me get into the trench with a shovel (hell he was my boss) si I jump into the trench, it's full of water and ZAP! He'd also cut a 240 volt power main cable supplying an entire subdivision and it was like a horse kicked me. I flew out of that trench a good 25 feet. Needless to say we took out power, water, telephone and cable for like 100 homes. The trench probably wasn't 15 feet long And it's so funny because when the police and fire department (even the mayor) showed up they were all talking to my boss by that sign now not 5 feet away "Call before you Dig". lol. Oh, and my boss received a $20,000 fine, but luckily the company paid for it. lol! I still laugh about that. So yeah I enjoyed this video. ZAP!

Why use AC ? Because the inventor of AC didn't fry an innocent elephant.

@amramjose

No, actually AC can be stepped up to over 100k volts and lower current, you can supply 3 phases over long distance with much less loss than you could with a DC powerline. It is possible that super-cooling the DC powerlines would make DC a better choice, essentially making a lossless line. So, a few DC lines are working worldwide, but very few.

Odd that this was just now recommended to me... Anyways, it's actually more efficient to transmit with HVDC over long distances. I don't know at what distance HVDC becomes more efficient but for the Utility I work at, we transmit at 500kv DC for about 900km before it's inverted back to AC for distribution.

Yup, however the tech used to build those HVDC systems is a bit more advanced than what was available when AC first won out. It would take until the 1950s for it to become realistic. It does seem like these new systems are extremely useful though, as they allow connecting and synchronizing existing AC grids which were built in an incompatible way (e.g. 50hz with 60hz) to share load over a larger interconnected system.
