what is the construction of ac generator
an induction generator
a generator
Converting D/C into A/C is very expensive. You can use inverters to switch the direction of the current but you would probably be better off to replace your DC generator with an AC generator and if you need both AC and DC power then use a rectifier (inexpensive when compared to inverters) to convert the AC to a DC current.
We can convert a 3 phase ac motor into generator by changing phase sequence of the ac input cable of that motor
what is the construction of ac generator
The stator and the magnets.
An ac generator produces ac, a dc generator produces dc, it all depends on the generator.
Alternator and ac generator is equal
In an alternator, there are two main parts, one is stationary part and other is rotating part. Field winding may be placed on fixed part(stator) as in case of DC generator and on rotating part(rotor) as in case of AC genarators. Armature winding may be placed on rotating part(rotor) in case of DC generator and on stationary part (stator) in case of AC generator. In AC generators, for all practical purposes you have rotating filed system.
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.
DC generator
There is no such thing as an AC generator, if it's DC it's a generator, if it's AC, it's an alternator.CommentThe above answer isn't correct, as 'generator' is a generic term applied to both d.c. and a.c. machines. It is perfectly correct to use the terms 'd.c. generator' or 'a.c. generator'. It is also correct to call an a.c. generator an 'alternator'.To answer the question, an a.c. generator can be broken down into two main parts: the 'stator' (stationary part) and the 'rotor' (rotating part). The field winding is part of the rotor assembly, and the armature windings (the windings into which the generated voltages are induced) are part of the stator assembly.
You step down voltage from an AC generator with a transformer.You step down frequency from an AC generator with a motor/generator set, or with an inverter. This is not a common thing to do.
an induction generator
It can be, however AC power is generally produced directly by an AC alternator/generator.
please how can i diagnose faults on an AC generator power circuits?
