How is Electricity

Generated?
Electricity flows through wires to light lamps and run TVs,
computers and all other electrical appliances. But where does
the electricity come from?

A generator is just like a "reverse" electric motor. Instead of

using electrical energy to spin the motor and in this
project we are using our hands to spin
fidget spinner, this makes the shaft spin the motor and
electricity is produced.

The simplest form of an electrical generator consists of a

strong magnet, a rotating copper coil and a power source to
spin the coil.

Most power plants in larger countries are big boilers that burn
a fuel to make heat. That heat energy is used to boil water to
make steam. The steam is fed under high pressure to a
turbine. The turbine spins and a shaft is connected to a turbo
generator that changes the mechanical spinning energy into
electricity.

The other sources used to spin these motors are HYDEL,

WIND, ATOMIC energies
