Elektrisk generator

En elektrisk generator eller dynamo (af græsk dynamis, "kraft") er en maskine, hvormed bevægelsesenergi omdannes til elektrisk energi i form af jævn- eller vekselstrøm.

Den første brugbare generator blev konstrueret 1867 i Tyskland, ved konstruktionen udnyttedes H. C. Ørsteds opdagelse af elektromagnetismen.

De fleste mindre elmotorer kan også benyttes som generatorer.
