COMPONENTS IN
GENERATOR..(1)
It is made of conductor
(copper). It is where a
current is induced by
magnetic induction
during movement of
magnet.
Stator
The stationary
electromagnetic
structure/part of
generator.
Alternating Current
(AC) generators or
alternators produce
electric current that
reverses direction many
times every second
Rotor
The rotating/moving
electromagnetic
structure/part of
generator.

Each half of
the
commutator
rings is call
commutator
segment and is
insulated from
the other half
3) Two carbon
brushes
connected to
the outside
circuit rest
against the
rotating
commutator
segment
HBI _UiTMPG
4) One brush
conducts the current
out of the generator.
-No matter how the
current in the loop
alternates, the
commutator segment
containing the
outwards-going
currents is always
the out brush at the
proper time

ALTERNATING CURRENT
Alternating current or A.C is an electric current that
flows for an interval of time in one direction and then
in the opposite direction.
It starts from zero and grows to maximum and then
decrease to zero. It continues to reach maximum in the
opposite direction and finally return to zero. The cycle
process repeated indefinitely.
