Things you need to know about Alternator
Alternators are critical components in modern cars. They convert mechanical energy into electricity to power electrical systems of the vehicle and recharge batteries. The alternator works by using a rotating magnet field and a set of stationary windings to produce alternating current. This AC is then converted into direct current by the rectifier. The alternator should be maintained regularly to ensure reliable vehicle operation.
Main Functions:
- Electrical Systems: Provides electrical energy for components such as lights, air conditioners, and radios.
- Charging a Battery: Charge the battery of the car to make sure it has sufficient power to start the automobile.
- Regulating voltage: Maintains constant voltage to prevent electrical components from being damaged.
