What is an ac and DC generator?

An a.c. generator produces alternating current, whereas a d.c. generator produces direct current.


Which is usually produced by a generator ac or DC?

An ac generator produces ac, a dc generator produces dc, it all depends on the generator.


What type of device produces alternating current?

A "generator" usually produces DC current. An "alternator" usually produces AC current. Older cars up to the 1960's used generators. Newer cars use alternators (simpler design) with diode rectifiers to convert the AC to DC. Batteries are DC. Some electronic circuitry (inverters) can change DC to AC.


Does a generator produce ac or DC voltage?

NO, generator always generating AC current,when commutator is used,at that time AC is converted in DC.and due to this generator is called dc generator.


What can change an ac current to a DC current?

rectifierac motor - dc generator set


How can you convert a DC generator into an ac generator?

Converting D/C into A/C is very expensive. You can use inverters to switch the direction of the current but you would probably be better off to replace your DC generator with an AC generator and if you need both AC and DC power then use a rectifier (inexpensive when compared to inverters) to convert the AC to a DC current.

If 200V AC generator connected to 200V DC generator then what happens?

current flows in both directions, depending on the AC voltage, i.e when ac is higher, current flows to the dc side, and vice versa


Difference between AC and DC generator?

The major difference between an AC generator and a DC generatoris that the DC generator requires a mechanism to provide a DC output. This can be done mechanically with a commutator or electronically with a rectifier. Internally, all generators produce an alternating voltage. Allgeneratorsrequire a magnetic field.


Difference between ac dynamo and dc dynamo?

1. AC Dynamo has full rings whereas DC Dynamo has split rings. 2. AC Dynamo produces alternating current whereas DC Dynamo produces direct current. 3. IN AC DYNAMO, CURRENT KEEPS CHANGING EVERY HALF OF A CYCLE WHEREAS IN DC DYNAMO, CURRENT FLOWS IN SAME DIRECTION.


Why was the ac electrical generator invented?

"AC" is just a scientific term that refers to the fact that this generator produces electricity in an Alternating Current as opposed to "DC" which refers to Direct Current. Commonly, the plug outlet on the wall is AC, and the little black box electrical adapter for your cordless telephone is changing that AC current into DC current for the phone to work on. The phone line in your house runs on 24 volts DC, where the wall sockets are 124 volts AC.


Alternator generates DC or AC?

An alternator produces AC current but it is converted to DC by the rectifier inside the alternator.
