Power-line communication (PLC) is a communication method that uses electrical wiring to simultaneously carry both data, and alternating current (AC) electric power transmission or electric power distribution.

It is also known as power-line carrier, power-line digital subscriber line (PDSL), mains communication, power-line telecommunications, or power-line networking (PLN).
