This might seem simple to somebody else, but it is a serious question. I thought AC didn't have a negative and a positive because the direction of current flow simply switched back and forth 60 times a second. However, when using a plug, one of the prongs is always bigger than the other, thus allowing the connection in only one way. Is this done on purpose in order for respective wires to line up? What is the purpose of this if there is no difference between each wire since the direction of current flow is infinitely changing?
I'd be really grateful if somebody could help me out with this question.
Thank you,
Vaughan
