Power Generators

Regardless of whether you intend to operate a generator as a primary power source or simply for stand or emergency power, you will benefit from a strong understanding of their operation and maintenance.

It is worthwhile remembering that the principals of operation for power generators are the same from the smallest of generators eg the unit that charges your car to the largest generator in the state run electricity generating stations – be they coal fired, hydro of even nuclear powered.

In this series of posts we will be exploring how to build a generator ( or how to install a commercial generator ) perform preventive maintenance as well as how to undertake minor repairs on power generators and associated  power generation control equipment.

In this series we will be discussing both theory and practical review for both dc and ac generators.
