An alternator works by converting mechanical energy from the engine into electrical energy that charges the battery and powers the electrical systems in a vehicle. It consists of a rotor spinning inside a stator with wire windings, creating an alternating current (AC) that is converted into direct current (DC) by diodes before being sent to the battery and electrical components.
