Tenting a via refers to covering via with soldermask to enclose or skin over the opening. A via is a hole drilled into the PCB that allows multiple layers on the PCB to be connected to each other. A non tented via is just a via that is not covered with the soldermask layer. Leaving these vias exposed or covered has pros and cons depending on the your design and manufacturing requirements.

People often used direct current as a means to charge batteries and their electronic devices. They also use DC power for third rail power systems and railway propulsion. While DC means direct current, it also means constant polarity. Some types of DC will have variances in their voltage, while most will not. A good example of varying voltage would be fluctuating voice signals on a power line. One should never try to reverse the polarity in a DC device, unless it features a diode bridge that will allow for the switch. Most of the battery-powered devices that people use do not have this bridge, so trying to alter the polarity would actually destroy the device.
