• It is a device used to convert mechanical energy to electrical energy. An electric generator is based on the principle of electromagnetic induction.

Different parts of an electric generator are :-

• Armature :- It is a coil having large number of turns of insulated copper wire wound over a soft iron core.

• Field magnet :- It is a powerful magnet that provides a uniform magnetic field. It is placed perpendicular to the axis of rotation of coil between the North and South poles.

• Slip rings :- In an AC generator, slip rings type of commutator is used. Slip rings are full rings with which the ends of coil are in contact. Whereas DC generator uses spilt ring type commutator which are half rings with which the ends of the armature coil are in contact.

• Brushes :- There are two stationary metallic carbon brushes which are in contact with external device and rings.
