-Direct Current. DC is the unidirectional flow of electric charge. Direct current is produced by sources such as batteries a model train set controller or a dynamo on your bicycle. Typical DC voltage values used on model train layouts are 12V (motive power), 5V (logic circuits such as those used by CBus) and 2-3V (Light-Emmitting Diode ([[glossary:glossary_l#led|LED]]) illumination).+Direct Current.
