What is the full form of DC

DC: Direct Current

DC stands for Direct Current. Direct current (DC) is an electric current that is uni-directional, so the flow of charge is always in the same direction.

As opposed to alternating current, the direction and amperage of direct currents do not change.

DC is used to charge batteries and work as power supply for electronic devices and is mostly used in low voltage applications. 

To convert AC to DC we use rectifier, and to convert DC to AC we use inverter.
