Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913)
In·duc·tion gen·er·a·tor
.
A
machine
built
as
an
induction
motor
and
driven
above
synchronous
speed
,
thus
acting
as
an
alternating-current
generator
; --
called
also
asynchronous generator
.
Below
synchronism
the
machine
takes
in
electrical
energy
and
acts
as
an
induction
motor
;
at
synchronism
the
power
component
of
current
becomes
zero
and
changes
sign
,
so
that
above
synchronism
the
machine
(
driven
for
this
purpose
by
mechanical
power
)
gives
out
electrical
energy
as
a
generator
.
