Direct current is the one directional flow of electric charge. An electrochemical cell is a prime example of DC power. Direct current may flow through a conductor such as a wire, but can also flow through semiconductors, insulators, or even through a vacuum as in electron or ion beams. A direct current circuit is an electrical circuit that consists of any combination of constant voltage sources, constant current sources, and resistors. This is a Quiz about Direct Current Circuit Basics and Analysis!
