It doesn't! It produces voltage. It does this by the relative movement between an armature (winding into which a voltage is induced) and a magnetic field (set up by field windings). Either the armature rotates inside a fixed field (small generators) or the field rotates within a fixed armature (larger generators).
Current is only supplied when a load is connected to the generator.
What else can I help you with?
What does an electromagnet do in a generator?
in a generator electromagnets are used for producing flux for rotor to cut so it can produce current in small generator they will have residual magnetism and in big generator current is supplied to electromagnet from another small dc generator
Can you use a motor instead of generator to produce current?
no
How does a generator produce electric current?
A generator moves a coil of wire through a magnetic field and that induces a current in the coil .
Does a generator produce electric current?
A generator moves a coil of wire through a magnetic field and that induces a current in the coil .
Does a generator produce direct current or alternating current?
A generator produces an alternating current, still it gives d.c. output because we use slip-rings at the terminals of actual output of generator.
Does an old car generator put out DC?
Depending on how old it is then an 'old' generator does produce DC current.
What piece of equipment is used to produce electricity?
Some possible answers are: a battery (which produces direct current) or a generator of electricity generator, such as a dynamo (which produces direct current) or an alternator (which produces alternating current).
Do wet cells and a generator both produce direct current?
No wet cells only store current.
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.
Why are currents changing direction?
Alternating current is generated by a rotating generator which moves in such a way as to produce that kind of current.
What uses motion to produce an electric current?
Any electrical generator except solar.
How DC generator produces DC current from ac current?
DC GERATORS PRODUCE DC current with the help of spilt ring commutators.
