Abstract
It is shown that the transformations of the charge conjugation in classical electrodynamics and in quantum theory can be interpreted as the consequences of the symmetry of Maxwell and Dirac equations with respect to the inversion of the speed of light: c to -c; t to t; (x,y,z) to (x,y,z), where c is the speed of light; t is the time; x, y, z are the spatial variables. The elements of physical interpretation are given.
