What is the use of Exciter in generator? & what will be the
current of Exciter in 500 KVA DG Set?

Answer Posted / kj

The above answer is true for DG set also. But sometimes on
small DG the output voltage is used instead of the Pilot
Exciter.

the current will vary with load and also the manufacturer
of the DG.

Often now 1-4 amps but some are 20 to 30 amps.
