How much does a generator cost?
Cost ranges from around one hundred dollars US for a tiny, off brand portable generator up to millions of dollars for large permanently installed generators. It really depends on the size and use. A typical 5000 watt portable generator you would use for camping and power outages at home costs around $500 - $800.
What is the purpose of the automatic voltage regulator?
The purpose of an adjustable voltage regulator is to have a regulator that can give out variable voltages. This is in contrast to a fixed voltage regulator which only outputs one voltage, which it is rated for. To allow for adjustable voltage, usually the resistors on the output of the regulator just need to be swapped for different values to give differing output voltages.
What does system floating mean in reference to portable generators?
There is no path to ground. IE: You need to ground the generator using a ground rod.
What is line charging in transmission?
Transmission Line Charging To initially charge the transmission line, the generator voltage stably controlled from 30% of the rated voltage to 110% of the rated voltage by using AVR. The change-over switch (43CH) for initial transmission line charging is mounted on the operator's desk in the main control room.This Voltage Changes are required because of the Stray capacitance effect at the charging and boosts the Voltage at the other end and the inductance of the line drops the Voltage soon after charging
What is a generator bus?
A generator bus is the bus that connects the generator to it's generating transformer.
How do we adjust the voltage of a shunt generator?
The voltage is adjusted with a potentiometer that adjusts the field voltage through the voltage regulator.
I have a 5000 watt Honda generator. How much of a voltage drop will a 25 foot portable generator cord cause?
A 25 foot cord will not cause enough voltage drop to worry about.

Why would all my house voltage go to 200VAC when connected to a portable generator?
Assuming you normal house voltage is 120 volts, sounds like something is wired wrong. If you had the house (or part of it) running on generator and then took some voltage readings, you may have damaged some of the items in the house already.
What is the off load voltage of the generator?
Terminal voltage is the voltage between the output terminals of a generator.
Generator excitation voltage?
the voltage which is given for creating magnetic field in a generator is known as excitation voltage.
What do you do with a portable generator that will start but has no power?
Check for a tripped breaker or a blown fuse. If you have a volt meter, check to see if there is excitation voltage going to the field windings.
What is the device that provides portable electricity?
Either a battery or a portable generator.
how much doe a generac portable generator cost and where from?
A portable generator can be as cheap as $200.00 to as much as $2,000.00. The price varies a lot depending on the size and power of the portable generator. They are available to purchase at online stores such as Overstock and Amazon.
What determines the voltage in a generator?
in generator the flux will determines the voltage. the flux will improve by auto voltage controller or any other equipment.
What happens at the rated value of the voltage of the generator?
The rated voltage of a generator decreases due to many causes such as armature reaction, overloading of the generator and AVR failure/ weak excitation voltage.
How does the load affect voltage output of a series generator?
In a series generator, the voltage output is directly affected by the load. As the load increases, the voltage output decreases due to increased voltage drops across the internal resistance of the generator. Conversely, reducing the load will result in an increase in the voltage output.
