So what do washing machines use, AC or DC?

Water and some sort of cleaning chemicals dependent on personal choice.

Did you not understand the question?

Yes and my answer made as much sense as the question.

The question only had four possible answers - "AC", "DC", "both", or "neither".

I don't know of any washing machine that plugs into a DC supply.

The motor silly.

Every washing machine that I have seen that plugs in has a 3 pin plug on it designed to work from AC.

The motor usually does not have a plug on it.


How do you know, I'd assume most are conencted to a mother board or PCB of some sort using a connector that could be described as a plug that fits into a socket.


Not a "3 pin plug on it designed to work from AC".


But that still won't tell you if a motor is AC or DC.
Most people buy washing machines that plug into the AC mains.




Is that one of your fantasies... AC/DC ?

TENS machines are AC.

Well good luck with it hope you enjoy it.


How odd that was the first thing that came to your mind.


It was one of the first things that came up.

They're actually used for many things - pain relief for example.


Do you have a pain in yuor vagina ?

I know a woman who has one attached to her back for most of the day. It prevents the muscles cramping up.


IS it AC or DC ?


Of course you can also torture folk with them.


Torture pleasure, there;s a thin line to cross.
I guess you've never been to the torture garden.


I know all about current flow, holes in semiconductors etc. But that's irrelevant. I asked if the flow was one way or both.

It's both in AC, it's not in DC

And which is it in the motor?


That would depend on the type of motor.


Evasion again.


yuo can buy both AC & DC motors.
