<previous   BASIC AC THEORY 12   next> VOLTAGE REGULATORS Because the voltage from an AC generator varies as the output load and power factor change, a voltage regulator circuit is necessary to permit continuity of the desired output voltage.       <previous   BASIC AC THEORY 12   next>

 <previous   BASIC AC THEORY 11   next> AC GENERATOR OPERATION Because of the nature of AC voltage and current, the operation of an AC generator requires that rules and procedures be followed. In addition, there are various types of AC generators available, each type having advantages and disadvantages.             […]

 <previous   BASIC AC THEORY 10   next> AC GENERATOR THEORY AC generators are widely used to produce AC voltage. To understand how these generators operate, the basic theory of operation must first be understood.       <previous   BASIC AC THEORY 10   next>
