If you make the connection, the breaker on the generator will trip. The motor will not get up to running RPM. Check and see if the motor is dual voltage. If it is, run it on the higher voltage. This will reduce your run current to about half of what it is on the lower voltage.

The value of a Home Electric Generator?

A home electric generator is a very useful machine to have around the house. If the power goes out due to a storm or other occurrence, then you simply power up the generator and you will have electric power. When buying one, keep in mind that they come in different sizes with differing wattage outputs. The smaller ones do not put out as much power as the larger models.


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.


What keeps a battery on a motorcycle running?

The battery is charged by a generator that runs through a regulator-rectifier. The generator outputs AC voltage and the rectifier converts the voltage to DC. The generator is normally mounted inside the engine on the flywheel.


How can you make water into electricity?

The vast majority of power stations heat water to form high pressure steam. This steam is used to drive a turbine which in turn drives a generator. The generator outputs electricity!


What is an example of a square wave generator?

A square wave pulse generator is the most commonly used generator. It is mainly used in testing different equipment. It outputs square waves that varies between two levels, with a 50 percent duty cycle.


Where can I find the most suitable generator for 5-bedroom house?

Home generators come in many different shapes and sizes, or rather power outputs. There are a variety of sources that can be used to figure out how big of a generator you will need for your house. The first one is the electric company. Contact them, and ask about options. Then, I would look at Costco, Lowes, Home Depot, ACE, or any other store you can find for pricing.


What are inputs and outputs with an example?

Activity/Function : Ceiling Fan. Input : Electric current. Output : Moving air.


How to calculate fuel consumption of a DG set?

The fuel usage will be based on the load applied to the generator and how many KW the generator outputs. The more load the higher the fuel consumption. You do not list the output of the generator nor the load so all I do is point you to the diesel fuel generator consumption chart. Click the link to see the chart where you can figure it yourself.


Can I use a gas generator in my home, if so what size should I buy?

Anyone can use a gas power generator at home. However, you must figure out what your needs are for a generator. Different ranges of power usage will require different kinds of power outputs. If you aim at using a power generator for a few things, you might be interested in a small power generator. If you aim at powering an entire home, you'd want a power generator of at least 30 kW.


What are the difference between dynamo and motor?

A dynamo takes in motion and outputs electricity and a motor takes in electricity and outputs motion. A dynamo converts mechanical energy to electric energy while a motor converts electrical energy to mechanical energy.


If I hook up an electrical device that requires 100V 500W with a transformer that outputs 110V 500W will this cause a problem?

No. But I am interested to know what the primary voltage to the transformer is.


What is one or more outputs?

They are outputs of an operation or activity.
