Systemd is currently set up to suspend if your machine is not plugged into an external monitor or in a docking station and the lid is closed. This is documented in logind.conf. If you want something else to happen (for example, for the computer to ignore the lid while it is on AC), then you should write (or find someone who has written) an inhibitor lock.
