"AC" means external wall power, normally from the AC coming out of a wall 
outlet.

If you interrupt updating the firmware, your XO becomes useless.  You may see 
the term "brick" used here.  An XO with broken firmware is about as useful as 
a brick.

The firmware is checking to make sure you are likely to have enough power to 
finish.
