. Why is an alternating current considered to be advantageous over direct current for long range transmission of electric energy
Best Answer
Ans: The energy loss of alternating current is very low at very high voltage. Thus, transmission losses are minimized at very high voltage. The high voltage can be stepped down for use at the receiving station
