What is the difference between alternator and generator and what do you use in power plants mostly and why?
The term, 'generator', can be applied to both A.C. and D.C. machines. An 'alternator' is specifically an A.C. generator. Power stations use alternators, because it is necessary to transmit electrical energy at high voltages, and this is done using Transformers, which are A.C. machines
main difference depends on magnetic field spin or fixed...
"In an alternator, electricity is produced when a magnetic field spins inside the stator. In generator, the armature or windings of wire spin inside a fixed magnetic field to generate electricity"
alternator use on smallscale production & generator use on large scale..

What is the difference between a piping designer and piping engineer?
Designer mostly drafting, piping engineer mostly calculation
Why alternator is preferred to dc generator?
DC generators are always useful in case of power outages. Many commercial companies use generators as back up units. DC generators are also energy efficient.
What is the difference between radio in the 1920s and now?
In the 20's there was only AM (short, medium and long wave), there were fewer commercials. Brroadcast hours were restricted and content was strictly scrutinized, balanced and mostly live. Now it's AM, FM and DAB 24/7 mostly pre-recorded and with little conscience.
What is the difference between lean concrete and mass concrete?
Mass concrete is concrete cast without Rebars. They are good in compression and are mostly used for the construction of gravity structures such as Dams. While reinforced concrete have reinforcement bars in them, which increases the tensile strenght of the concrete.
What size generator would it take to run a 400 hp 480 volt motor?
Well, if 80kW is your PEAK value, then you need an 80kw generator. If 80kW is your nominal current, you need to figure out what your peak current is. This will depend on the type of load. Is mostly motor loads? If so, your peak current may be significantly more than nominal, depending on the starting sequences of the motors. Clear as mud?
What is the difference between cyber crime Computer crime?
Mostly a difference in terminology. They mean essentially the same.
What is the difference between a piping designer and piping engineer?
Designer mostly drafting, piping engineer mostly calculation

Thedifferencebetween theAlgonquinand theIroquoisis that theIroquois are mostly farmers and theAlgonquins were mostly hunters.
What is the difference between FX and FXX?
FX is mostly dramas (although it airs some comedies) and FXX is mostly comedies.
The difference between roses and dandelions?
the difference is that a dandelion is yellow MOSTLY and a rose is MOSTLY red Jahzy :)
Why does your cars power disappear for a second?
depends on make and model but is mostly a comp or connection problem between battery and alternator and electrical system
What is the main difference between inner planets and outer ones?
Inner planets are mostly rock and outer planets are mostly gas.
What is the difference between stridor and wheeze?
wheeze can be inspiratory or expiratory but stridor is mostly inspiratory
What is the difference between mostly sunny and partly sunny?
partly sunny means the suns kinda out and mostly sun means the sun is out more
What is the difference between print and nonprint sources?
print source consists mostly of text ; nonprint sources consist mostly of images and sound
What is the difference between apes and human?
About 1.5% DNA, mostly in the speech areas of the brain and throat.
