I ment the voltage drop on the long lines. And that there was no device

transformer for DC. Thanks the existance of transformers AC could be easily
converted
to higher and lower voltages - shich ment, that long distance transmissions
could be at
high voltage and converted to lower voltage near the consumer. And that was one
of
the main reasons, why AC one out.
Nowadays DC current is actualy used for long distance high voltage power
transmissions
(because of lower losses). But it's my understanding that the voltage
conversion is still
not as easy and simple, as it is with AC.
