G'day Speedy and all,
If you would like to have a play with electricity and I have in the past made this 3 globe field flashing generator device,
it re-energizes a generator that has sat around too long .
Residual magnetism in the generator exciter field allows the generator to build up voltage during start-up. This magnetism is sometimes lost due to shelf time or improper operation, among other reasons. Restoring this residual magnetism is possible and is sometimes referred to as "flashing the exciter field".
