2. Generac - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generac

   generac.com. Generac Holdings Inc., commonly referred to as Generac (derived from a combination of generating and AC), is a Fortune 1000 American manufacturer of backup power generation products for residential, light commercial and industrial markets. [6] Generac's power systems range in output from 800 watts to 9 megawatts, [7] and are ...

3. Thermoelectric generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_generator

   A thermoelectric generator (TEG), also called a Seebeck generator, is a solid state device that converts heat (driven by temperature differences) directly into electrical energy through a phenomenon called the Seebeck effect [1] (a form of thermoelectric effect). Thermoelectric generators function like heat engines, but are less bulky and have ...

4. Standby generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standby_generator

   Standby generator. A standby generator is a back-up electrical system that operates automatically. [1] Within seconds of a utility outage an automatic transfer switch senses the power loss, commands the generator to start and then transfers the electrical load to the generator. The standby generator begins supplying power to the circuits. [2]

5. Induction generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_generator

   Induction generator. An induction generator or asynchronous generator is a type of alternating current (AC) electrical generator that uses the principles of induction motors to produce electric power. Induction generators operate by mechanically turning their rotors faster than synchronous speed. A regular AC induction motor usually can be used ...

6. Engine-generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine-generator

   Engine-generator. Cart-mounted engine–generator being used at a construction site. An engine–generator is the combination of an electrical generator and an engine (prime mover) mounted together to form a single piece of equipment. This combination is also called an engine–generator set or a gen-set. In many contexts, the engine is taken ...

7. Permanent magnet synchronous generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_magnet...

   A permanent magnet synchronous generator is a generator where the excitation field is provided by a permanent magnet instead of a coil. The term synchronous refers here to the fact that the rotor and magnetic field rotate with the same speed, because the magnetic field is generated through a shaft-mounted permanent magnet mechanism, and current is induced into the stationary armature.

8. Electric generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_generator

   In electricity generation, a generator[1] is a device that converts motion-based power (potential and kinetic energy) or fuel-based power (chemical energy) into electric power for use in an external circuit. Sources of mechanical energy include steam turbines, gas turbines, water turbines, internal combustion engines, wind turbines and even ...
