because working principle of both the things are same.

The motor converts electrical energy in to mechanical via magnetic induction and generator do the exact opposite of this.




And yes,you should use 'electricity generator' not only 'generator'.

What is reverse power of generator?

It is wise to start thinking of power in DC circuit. If a load is connected to a power source in a DC circuit, the corresponding VOLT CURRENT plot both will be in the positive quadrant. Of course, polarity must be correct. Now if the CURRENT (in the same polarity arrangement) happens to be in the negative quadrant, the power is said to be reversed. The same can be thought in an AC circuit. Taking a half wave cycle of both VOLT and CURRENT, one can apply the same understanding as in the DC circuit. If the AC circuit is capacitive or inductive, VOLT and CURRENT waves will be shifted according to the value of the capacitive or inductive load, and here one has to be aware.

What is a compound dc generator?

generators are machines that convert machanical energy to electrical energy and could be AC or DC. if in a DC generator has it field armature connection in both series and parallel its said to be compound dc generator.


What is a thermal overload?

the relay used to protect the generator/motor from overload currents. And to protect insulation of the stator windings.


When is A 3-phase synchronous motor said to be floating when it operates?

on no load and without losses


Can you connect 460Vac motor to 480Vac circuit?

Yes, the 440 volt motor is withing the 10% voltage range of the 460 volt group. When the supply is said to be 480 volts, usually it is lower than what it is stated to be. Once the motor is connected check the current against the motor's nameplate amperage.

What are the drugs that can reverse the effects of sleep deprivation?

CX717 is a drug that is said to reverse the effects of sleep deprivation. It has been tested on lab animals. Drugs with methamphetamines are also being said to help reverse this condition.


Electrical generator transfroms electrical energy into other energy?

An electrical generator does not transform electrical energy into another form; rather, it performs the opposite—it converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. This process involves using a mechanical force, such as from a turbine or engine, to rotate a coil within a magnetic field, thereby generating electricity through electromagnetic induction. This electricity can then be used to power homes, businesses, and various devices. At Ingress Electrical, we specialize in providing reliable generator solutions that ensure continuous power supply, especially during outages. Our team ensures each system is expertly installed and maintained to meet your energy needs efficiently and safely.


If a three phase motor loses one leg will it turn backwards before it burns up?

If a three phase motor loses one leg it will do neither of what you suggest. To change the rotation of a three phase motor any two motor leads must be interchanged. When one leg of a three phase system goes down it is said to be single phasing. The overload protection on the motor senses the higher current on the other two legs and trips the overload heaters. This in turn drops the contactor open and disconnects the motor from the supply.

How do you tell if the replace motor 2L non-turbo is older than they said if the cams appear to be not all silver on the lopes?

no matters what year they said 90 to 93 i believe they made the Mitsubishi(good) motor for that car after that it was the Chrysler motor (crap)
