AC can just be viewed as a a time-varying voltage between two wires. One of them may be designated as "neutral" but not always. There is usually a conductor for ground also. If you don't plug anything into the outlet, the voltage is still present, but the current is basically zero, because it is an open circuit, and not really long enough to be a transmission line at 50 or 60 Hz. | |
