If an attempt is made to sell you a magnetic generator, on the claim that it will

supply you with free energy, then that attempt constitutes a scam ... that is,

an attempt to defraud you for the seller's benefit.

If the magnetic generator is simply demonstrated, with no attempt to persuade you to

do anything about it, then it's simply a magic show ... that is, an entertaining illusion.

In either case, you must understand, even if it's not obvious to you, that the magnetic

generator is not doing what the operator may claim it is doing, or what it may appear

to be doing.

How electricity is produced at power plants?

Huge generators turn magnets inside loops of wire. The resulting changes in the magnetic field relative to the coils induces an electrical current in the wire. The generators themselves are rotated by water- or steam- driven turbines.


Motion magnetism and a conductor will create what?

Moving a conductor (a wire) in a magnetic field will create voltage in the wire. Note that relative motion must occur, i.e., the wire must move "across" the magnetic lines of force, and not "along" them to create voltage. Moving a conductor in a magnetic field is the basic idea behind motors and generators.


How do hydroelectric magnets create electricity?

There is no such thing as a hydroelectric magnet, but perhaps you mean how do hydroelectric generators create electricity? Generators work in a way opposite to electric motors. In this generator, a stream of water flows past the vanes of a turbine and causes the turbine to spin. The turbine causes an armature with magnets to rotate. The consequent rotating magnetic field moves past conductive coils of wire surrounding the armature, and as you may know, current is generated when a conductive wire is exposed to a moving magnetic field.


Why generator produces only AC?

A generator produces electricity by moving wires through a magnetic field. The direction of the induced current is dependent upon the direction in which the wire crosses the magnetic field. In a generator the magnetic field is usually fixed - and the wires are spinning through it. So: Visualize a horizontal magnetic field. The axis of rotation of the wires is perpendicular to the field. Any given wire will be cutting up through the field at a given point... then, 180º later will be cutting down through the same field. The direction of the induced current will reverse with each half-rotation because the wire will be moving in the opposite direction relative to the magnetic field. (In the USA the generators produce "60 cycle" current. That tells you that the generators are turning their wires (coils) at 60 revolutions per second.) Richard yeaa buddie...Lickety splyt


How are magnets used in generators?

There are two types of generators. First is Alternative current generator and second is Direct current generator. In both types of generators horseshoe-type magnets are used. This magnet is used so that when the shaft is rotated in anticlockwise direction the direction of force is upwards and the magnetic field lines are going from north to south or left to right. By using flemings right hand law the current wil flow from west to east. This magnet makes the current to flow in a circuit consistently to produce electricity.

Yes. That's how generators work.


How do electric generators produce a current?

they produce a current the magnetic field has to turn motion into that current. the gas coal or water pass on that current to the magnetic field.

The magnetic field that remains in a magnetic material ( a winding core) after the removal of electric power or the magnetizing force.


An electric current produces?

Produces magnetic fields, that are used in generators, inductors and motors. The magnetic field at any given point is specified by both a magnitude and a direction.

Why is excitation necessary for synchronous generators?

generators work by rotating a magnetic field thru a wire shell or by rotating wire thru a stationary magnetic field (think of a small DC motor with magnets around the shell) since large generators dont have magnets in them (its not very efficent)you have to send a flowing current thru the rotating coils to produce the magnetic field. this induces current in the stator and you have a generator..of course the same effect is produced by inducing a current in the stator and pulling the output from the rotor.


How does an electric generators work?

Converts mechanical energy into electricity. Movement of magnetic field across a conductor will cause electron flow. The windings of a generator are rotated within a magnetic field.

How do you power generators?

A generator produces electrical energy by harnessing mechanical energy and using that to rotate coils in a magnetic field.
