Alternator vs Generator Alternators and generators are two devices which generate electricity. An alternator can be called generator. These devices serve the same function, they are quite different. An alternator is a charging system for cars that produces electricity. Generators are used in the production of large-scale electricity. Both alternators and generators convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. The main difference between them is the spins and what is fixed.
In an alternator, produced electricity when a magnetic field spins inside the stator (windings of wire).12 volts Generator Farms Tractors Powed By Denparts, on the other hand, the armature or windings of wire spin inside a magnetic field to generate electricity. Alternators are more efficient than generators. Alternators conserve energy by using only the energy that is needed, while generators use all the energy that is produced. They have a higher output than generators. 12 volts Generator Farms Tractors Powed By Denparts When polarization, alternators and generators are very different.Generators have to be polarized after installation, there is no need for polarization in alternators. Alternator brushes last longer than those of generators.
The brushes in an alternator are used only for carrying current to power the rotor and the slip rings they ride are smooth. Difference between 12 volts Generator Farms Tractors Powed By Denparts and alternators when it comes to charging. Alternator will not charge a dead battery and if you do try to charge it, there is a possibility that it will burn out. Generator, however, can be used for charging a dead battery.
