difference between ac and dc generators..

Answer / jyothi

In DC Generators AC voltage induces in armature winding &
AC is converted to dc with the help of commutator.

In AC Generators supply is taken from armature through slip

In DC Generators the armature is placed on the rotor due to
commutator.
In AC Generators armature is placed on rotor or stator.

Answer / vaijanath nirgude

in ac generator the dc excitation is given to the rotor
for producing rotating electromagnetic field & emf induced
in the stator is ac.
in dc generator magnetic field is produced by permanent
magnet or by electro magnet & emf is induced in the
armature is ac & it is converted to DC by using commutator
