Building your own generator or home made power plant is a great learning experience and a way to save on electricity. While this project can require some time and investment, you’ll learn to become more self sufficient and improve your knowledge of a technology that daily life depends on.

A magnetic generator is an electromechanical device that creates an electric current from mechanical motion. A coil of tightly wrapped wires, surrounds a series of magnets that are free to rotate about an axis in the middle of the coil. In the presence of a changing magnetic field, called flux, an electromotive current is produced that can power electric devices. The type of current produced is Alternating Current and is the class found in any home outlet.

A person can either choose to physically design the alternator/generator, or can use an existing one and install it within a production and storage system that is designed by the user. This can be done inexpensively and with a little patience.

The components are mounted on the plate within reasonable distance to each other with the axis of the mechanical drive side by side to the alternator axis. Around the pulley on the end of the alternator shaft, the belt wraps to connect the drive mechanism and turn the alternator axis. Once mounted in place, with proper belt tension, the batteries can be wired in series to the alternator.

To directly use the power, a standard automotive cigarette lighter housing and needs to be wire to the batteries. Then with any electrical devices, use a cigarette lighter adapter to plug into it. For sensitive equipment, it’s a very good idea to install a fusible link between the device and the batteries to avoid potential overloads.

For those who wish to sell excess electricity generated from their home made power plant, it is possible to wire the system to an in home fuse box. This requires knowledge of electrical wiring, or consultation of a professional electrician.

A magnetic energy generator, more appropriately called an electric generator, can help you be a part of the green economy. In addition can prove to be educational experience that sheds light on how technology works. A person should do their homework before starting this project and consult a professional when necessary.
