| BASIS | MOTOR | GENERATOR |
|---|---|---|
| Function | The Motor converts Electrical energy into Mechanical Energy |
Generator converts Mechanical energy to Electrical energy.
|
| Electricity | It uses electricity. | It generates electricity |
| Driven element | The Shaft of the motor is driven by the magnetic force developed between armature and field. | The Shaft is attached to the rotor and is driven by mechanical force. |
| Current | In a motor the current is to be supplied to the armature windings. | In the generator current is produced in the armature windings. |
| Rule Followed | Motor follows Fleming’s Left hand rule. | Generator follows Fleming’s Right hand rule. |
| Example | An electric car or bike is an example of electric motor. | Energy in the form of electricity is generated at the power stations |

1.Electric Motor is an electric device which converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.
2.It follows Fleming's left hand rule.
3.It uses electricity.
4.For example - cars, ceiling fans, etc
•Electric generator:-
1.The Electric generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.
2.It follows Fleming's right hand rule.
3.It generates electricity.
4.For example- power station, etc.
I hope this helpful for you.
