Once again you post nothing more than rhetoric with claims lacking
detail. Asking one to detect the direction of energy of a stable
oscillating signal is asking to measure the direction of current. Such
a question is different than asking one to detect where the generator
is connected relative to the resistor, period. :-)

You do understand that current flow is an abstract mathematical concept
for modeling the real world, don't you?

And specifically for an AC circuit, you do understand that the current
flow is constantly reversing, don't you?

You do understand that the direction of current flow, since it is a
mathematical abstract can be in any direction choosen and has nothing
whatsoever to do with the direction of energy flow, don't you?

Since previous poster presented one source and one load, there is only
one way energy can flow and asking which end is the source and which
end is the load is exactly the same thing, i.e. from the source to
the load.
