Answer / pillay

You need a magnetic field to produce electrical energy.This
can be produced from electro magnetic means . What if during
a power failure when the DG set usage is most wanted and the
electrical source from a battery is also not available say
due to battery failure or discharged battery.To avoid such
situation a permanent magnet is used instead for initial
excitation.
