Best Answer

Converting D/C into A/C is very expensive. You can use inverters to switch the direction of the current but you would probably be better off to replace your DC generator with an AC generator and if you need both AC and DC power then use a rectifier (inexpensive when compared to inverters) to convert the AC to a DC current.

How do you convert a DC generator to ac alternator?

Turn the DC generator inside out and you have an alternator .


How do you convert ac generator to dc generator?

Such conversions are often inefficient and/or expensive. It requires an external power supply or battery charger to convert AC into DC.

What is DC generator?

because DC generator generates generally generate DC power but as it has slip rings which convert it into ac output power


Does a rectifier have the ability to convert DC to AC?

No. For that, you need an inverter or a generator.


How can an ac generator be converted to DC generator?

It may not be possible to physically convert AC generator to DC generator. What can be done is that 'Rectifier' of suitable capacity can be connected to the out put of AC generator to get DC supply.


Which is usually produced by a generator ac or DC?

An ac generator produces ac, a dc generator produces dc, it all depends on the generator.


What is difference between generator and oscillator?

A generator is used to convert mechanical energy to electrical energy. An oscillator is used to convert dc to ac


What is a compound dc generator?

generators are machines that convert machanical energy to electrical energy and could be AC or DC. if in a DC generator has it field armature connection in both series and parallel its said to be compound dc generator.


Is dynamo an AC generator?

DC generator


What happens if commutator of DC generator is removed?

If the commutator is removed from your generator, you (if you connect slip rings) get AC supply instead of DC supply. the function of the commutator is to convert AC to DC supply and vice versa.Additional AnswerRemoving the commutator will also prevent you from connecting the output of the generator to its load. Remember, the generator's armature is spinning!
