What is AC-voltage

AC-voltage is voltage without a Plus and Min

AC-voltage symbol NO plus min power.PNG

Other Names for "AC-voltage"

  • Current power or voltage
  • sine wave power or voltage
  • Inverter type of power or voltage

AC-voltage safety

Voltage under the 24 volt does not give dangerous electric shock.

What is low voltage

Other Names for "low voltage"

  • Shock free power or voltage

What is DC-voltage

DC-voltage haves a Plus and Min.

DC-voltage symbol Plus min power.PNG

Other Names for "DC-voltage"

  • DC power or voltage
  • Battery type of power or voltage
  • Plus-min power or voltage


Electric DC polarity PLUS and MIN

Electricity basics: Marked plus wire

Markt plus

  • red is always plus.
  • painted line on the plus wire, no line on the min.
  • Plus wire is square, round wire is min
  • sharp edge is plus, round wire is min
  • knot is plus, no knot is min
  • mark on the plus wire and so on, the plus wire is special or not normal than a normal wire.
  • and so on, the plus wire is special or not normal than a normal wire.



These must be in good working order to save your electric material:

  • The voltage
  • The amperage
  • The PLUS and MIN position
  • The type of power AC or DC
  • The type of low voltage coax connector
  • protect your plug and connector against mechanical puling force
  • take your time to check these 6 items

What is electrical-short ?

Electrical short is when the plus and min are in contact with each other

This is harmful for the adapter or battery.

electrical-short with (dis)connecting device

Some smaller connectors shortcut the power supply if you (dis)connect .

(dis)Connect the connector to the device if there is NO power on the plug.

Car cigarette lighter plug

A Car cigarette lighter plug must have the plus in the middle and the min on the outside.

Some female Car socket in some truck have 24 volt.
