Coils are rotated past these magnets which causes the electrons in the coil to align in a particular way. This causes current to move in that direction. The power is actually generated as the coil wires pass through the lines of flux from the magnet.

If you would like to see these lines of flux you can! Put a piece of paper over a magnet and sprinkle some iron filings on the paper. Tap the paper a few times and the flux lines will start to appear. A wire passing through these lines generates a small current flow. The faster you can make this action repeat, the more flow. Many wires are coiled together to make this action occur so often that usable power is made.

PMG mainly used for generating voltage for excitation system in case of brush less excitation system.In PMG residual flux is enough to get magnetizing itself.there is no need external excitation for voltage development in PMG
