Magnetic Effect of Current:

When electric current is passed through a conductor then magnetic field is produced around the conductor. This effect is called magnetic effect of current

Magnetic Flux:

Number of magnetic lines of force passing through a surface, kept in a magnetic field, is called magnetic flux associated with that surface.

Electric generator is a device that transforms mechanical energy to electrical energy. It is based on the concept of electromagnetic induction. Generators are of two types.

(i) Alternating current generator (ii) Direct current generator
