An electric generator is a device that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy through the principle of electromagnetic induction. The basic operation of a generator involves moving a conductor, typically in the form of coils of wire, through a magnetic field. This movement induces an electrical current in the conductor due to the interaction between the magnetic field and the motion of the conductor. ### Key Components of an Electric Generator: 1. **Stator**: The stationary part of the generator that contains coils of wire and sometimes magnets.
