Question:
Does anyone know the duty time as a % of max output for a dynamo
or alternator?
My wire welder has different duty cycles. At max output it's
about 25%. That means on for one minute, off for three.
Home generators have a duty cycle which I would guess is about
10%. That means they can take a 10% overload for a few seconds
as when a large motor starts up.
So, at what percentage can a dynamo or alternator be reliably
continuously run with out endangering it's health? I wouldn't
think it would be at 100%.
