Design and Construction of Fuelless AC Generator Using Alternator Interfaced With an Inverter

AC Generators are useful appliances that supply electrical power during a power outage from national grid and prevent discontinuity of daily activities or disruption of business operations. Generators are available in different electrical and physical configurations for use in different applications. This work develops a design, Construction and Characterize fuelless AC Generator that generates electrical energy from an alternator interfaced with an inverter. The prime mover is DC electric motor which was connected to the alternator armature shaft. The DC electric motor was powered by rechargeable 24V 75Ah battery, and as it rotates it provides energy to the alternator resulting in generation of AC voltage. Part of the output voltage was rectified to provide 12V for recharging of the battery for it not to be drained. The other part was connected to which was connected to an inverter to provide 220V to the output circuit breaker for the utility load. A control panel was also in cooperated for monitoring and regulation for output voltage. The results were obtained using multi meter to read the output voltage at different load conditions and also measure the voltage output from differ
