Summary of AC and DC Generator

A generator is a machine that converts the mechanical energy of a power machine into electrical energy. DC generator consists of stator and rotor. On the stator there is a permanent magnet or wire windings that are charged with DC, forming electromagnets that replace permanent magnets. The rotor also has windings that are powered by DC.

Although DC current still finds its application in a large number of areas, today it is quite clear that alternating current has great advantages, especially in meeting the needs of large energy consumers. Rotor of AC generators consist of serial-bound magnets (in fact, they are electromagnets), and the stator is a coil.
