Define the rule used to identify the direction of induced current in an electric generator. How can we increase the amount of electric current produced in the electric generator? Mention the property of the current produced by AC generator. Mention an important advantage of this type of current.

Fleming.s right hand rule shows the direction of induced current when a conductor attached to a circuit moves in a magnetic field. The maximum potential difference or current can be increased by increasing the rate of rotation increasing the strength of the magnetic field increasing the number of turns on the coil. Electromagnetic conduction is the property of the current produced by the AC generator. The major advantage that AC electricity has over DC electricity is that AC voltages can be readily transformed to higher or lower voltage levels, while it is difficult to do that with DC voltage. Since high voltages are more efficient for sending electricity to-great distances, AC electricity has an advantage over DC.
