Principle of Electrical Generator

An Electrical Generator is a machine which converts mechanical energy or power into electrical energy or power.

The conversion is based on the principle of the production of dynamically induced e.m.f. Whenever a conductor cuts magnetic flux dynamically induced e.m.f is produced in it according

Uses of DC Generators

Shunt Generators:  With field regulators are used for ordinary lighting and power supply purposes.They are also used for charging batteries because their terminal voltage are almost constant or can be kept constant.
