Best Answer

Whether you should purchase a generator depends on your needs. If you have only adults in the house, you are probably accustomed to power outages in the winter. If you have small kids, having a stand-by power source may come in handy. The good thing about power outages in the winter is that food (freezer) can be stored outside to prevent loss. If you have an alternate source of heat (fireplace, stove) and are prepared for outages (food, water, etc.) you might not need a generator. The decision is one that you have to weigh on your own.

Why you are using dc in spring charge motors?

Presumably, you are describing the spring-charging mechanism on high-voltage circuit breakers? If so, then the reason is because, in the event of an electrical fault in which the substations loses its a.c. supply, the circuit breakers can be recharged from the standby d.c. batteries.
