Practicing Success
The conduction current is same as displacement current when source is: |
ac only dc only either ac or dc neither dc nor ac |
either ac or dc |
for a DC (constant ) voltage, the capacitor current is zero. Hence, for a DC source the conduction current and displacement current (capacitor current) are not same.
Whereas, by Maxwell's equation for a time varying voltage (AC voltage), both conduction and displacement currents are same. |
