Generator

The first electric generator was the Dynamo, which had a stationary structure generating a strong magnetic field. A generator helps in the transformation of mechanical energy into electrical energy. This process of transformation is performed with the help of electromagnetic induction and a motor. The mechanical energy may be in the form of an internal combustion engine, a wind turbine, water falling through a turbine, waterwheel, or any other source. Generators are vital in an industry setup as the production process is not hampered even in case of power cuts if you have a generator. Generators using a hybrid power system are called hybrid generators. These generators use lesser fuel and supply highly consistent electric power.

It is important to select a generator matching your industry requirementis. Generators using petrol or diesel as fuel can be selected. Other kinds of generators include steam generators, hand portable emergency generators and mid-size stationary engine-generators. The stationary engine-generators are widely used in the U.K and run on red diesel. The portable generators use a max of 1000 watts & 2000 watts of energy. They generally rotate at 1500 rpm and produce a power of 50 Hz. Many of these generators are available on many online shopping sites.
