Generator Operation. Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Electric generator is a device That Produces electrical energy from mechanical energy source, usually by means of electromagnetic induction. This process is known as electricity generation. Generator drives an electric charge to move through an external electrical circuit, but the generator does not create an existing electric wires in the windings. This is analogous to a water pump, the which creates a flow of water but does not create water in it. Source of mechanical energy can be either reciprocating or turbine steam engine, water falling through a Waterwheel or turbine, internal combustion engines, wind turbines, hand crank, solar or solar energy, compressed water, or any other source of mechanical energy.

In the industrial world , generators are very useful at all to carry out all activities in a company that requires the availability of electrical energy. Then the existence of this generator needs to operate properly. So that when there are problems related to electricity generators in the company could be one means to supply electricity to every corner of the companies that need electricity. In addition to the generator to function with a maximum required capability to perform maintenance and ability to handle troubleshooting if they occur on the generator. This training provides a basic understanding about the working principle of the generator, protective equipment and how to treat them
