These are the application of the phenomenon of the effect of magnetic field on current. In case an electrical wire passes through a changing magnetic field intensity, electromagnetic induction takes place.
As a consequence, Electromagnetic induction occurs. Generators utilize the electromagnetic induction thus formed. With this induction, Generator converts mechanical energy into electrical. In an AC generator, the current changes direction alternately.
With a DC, or direct current, generator, the current is unidirectional. Other difference is in use, which is different.AC generator is used as a small motor driving household electrical gadgets.
DC generators can supply power to very large electric motors used in subway systems. DC generators are reliable and efficient in energy supply.
