Alternating current. Electrical energy which reverses its direction at regular intervals.
www.arisetech.com/Solar_Info/Glossary.html
The commonly available electric power used in buildings, including homes. The power shifts or alternates back and forth, typically changing direction 50 or 60 times per second.

An electric current that reverses its direction at regular intervals.
railroads.uconn.edu/locomotives/glossary.htm
Alternating current, where the electrical current switches directions a fixed number of times per second (such as 60 times per second or 60 Hz)

Basically: A wall outlet. Officially: Occurs when charge carriers in a conductor or semiconductor periodically reverse their direction of movement. The voltage of an AC power source changes from instant to instant in time. Back to top

Electric current that reverses direction, usually many times per second. Most electrical generators produce alternating current.

Electric current that flows in one direction and then in the reverse direction. In North America, the standard cycle frequency is 60 Hz; in Europe it is 50 Hz. Alternating current is used universally in power systems because it can be transmitted and distributed much more economically than direct current.

alternating current, the most common method of delivering electricity in North America.
doityourself.com/lumber/abcconstruction.htm
A type of electrical current in which the direction of the flow of electrons switches back and forth. In the US, the current that comes from a wall outlet is alternating; it cycles back and forth sixty times each second. The current that flows in a flashlight, on the other hand, is direct current (DC), which does not alternate.

The type of electrical power supplied by utilities or made when a generator is run. The unique characteristic of this form of electricity is that it reverses direction at regular intervals. For example, 120 Vac 60 Hz. power reverses flow 60 times a second, hence the rating 60 Hz. (cycles).

Flow of electricity that constantly changes direction between positive and negative sides. Almost all power produced by electric utilities in the United States moves in current that shifts direction at a rate of 60 times per second.
www.neo.state.ne.us/statshtml/glossarya.htm
States or local governments independently raise up-front capital required for a Federally approved project and preserve eligibility for future Federal-aid reimbursement for that project. At a later date, the state can obligate Federal-aid highway funds for reimbursement of the Federal share. This tool allows states to take advantage of access to a variety of capital sources, including its own funds, local funds, anticipation notes, revenue bonds, bank loans, etc., to speed project completion.
www.fhwa.dot.gov/innovativefinance/ifp/glossary.htm
An electric flow that regularly reverses its direction. Each forward-backward motion interval is called a cycle. Electric current in the United States alternates with a frequency of 60 hertz or cycles per second.
