On the specification
| Board | Spec | Statement |
|---|---|---|
| AQA GCSE 8463 | 4.2.3.1 | Direct and alternating potential difference |
| Edexcel GCSE 1PH0 | 10.33 | Explain the difference between direct and alternating voltage |
| Edexcel GCSE 1PH0 | 10.34 | Describe direct current (d.c.) as movement of charge in one direction only and recall that cells and batteries supply direct current (d.c.) |
| Edexcel GCSE 1PH0 | 10.35 | Describe that in alternating current (a.c.) the movement of charge changes direction |
| Edexcel GCSE 1PH0 | 10.36 | Recall that in the UK the domestic supply is a.c., at a frequency of 50 Hz and a voltage of about 230 V |
| OCR GCSE J249 | P8.2g | Recall that the domestic supply in the UK is a.c. at 50 Hz and about 230 volts |
| OCR GCSE J249 | P8.2h | Explain the difference between direct and alternating voltage |
