Alternating current Fundamentals.
One of the important reasons for concentrating on the sinusoidal voltage is that it is the
voltage generated by utilities throughout the world. Other reasons include its application
throughout electrical, electronic, communication, and industrial systems. Sinusoidal ac
voltages are available from a variety of sources. The most common source is the typical home
outlet, which provides an ac voltage that originates at a power plant; such a power plant is
most commonly fueled by water power, oil, gas, or nuclear fission.
