Kensington Exchange - Note the cams on the right-hand-side, oscillating the electrical contacts to generate pulse signals of different frequencies. Note the two-toned wheel in the middle - presumably for use in checking the speed of rotation, used with a strobe of known frequency. If it were a ringer, the cams typically would have been encased in eg a glass or perspex covering to keep the dust out.
They generated 10 ips & 20 ips (Impulses Per Second) for use by routiners etc. for dialling numbers - 600 RPM = 10 IPS
Used only in the older SxS exchanges, later exchanges used separate relay type impulsing circuits.

My husbands generators were originally safety orange and stood out like a sore thumb at the weddings and functions that rented them. Now they blend in. Enamel
An old picture of the generator room at Black dyke mills Queensbury , This was formerly the old boiler room and reverted back to being a boiler room in later life but with modern gas fired boilers installed .I actually work in this room now and will upload a present day picture for comparison when I develop my next few rolls of film .

I saw this on the road today: a Nissan Pathfinder with a generator and window air conditioner attached to the back. The full-size image shows a little more detail.

The Science Museum of Minnesota has a wave generator. You can adjust the frequency and amplitude of the oscillator that generates the waves. You can also tinker with the "seafloor" profile. I found that a large amplitude, low frequency oscillation, combined with a gradual decrease in "sea" depth led to the biggest and most clearly defined waves.
As of 20 Dec 2013, this is, by far, my most viewed image in Flickr. I have no idea why.
This alternating-current generator was installed at the Bunker Hill & Sullivan silver mine in Idaho in 1897, replacing a pair of Edison direct-current generators.
Looking at these generators makes me wonder why people would rather have coal-fired power plants than wind power. They are located all around the place where I'm staying, at a typical distance of 2 km. and make little to no noise.
One of the men restoring the Mill told me that this generator was also used to charge batteries which the local farmers would bring along to the Mill.
The Mill at Gelligroes in Pontllanfraith dates back to approximately 1625. There have been several improvements made including a water powered generator which was built in 1908 to provide electricity for the Mill and the house. A major restoration was made in 1993, and the mill now incorporates a candle making factory.
The Mill is currently undergoing refurbishment work.
In 1912 Arthur (Artie) Moore an amateur radio enthusiast living at the Mill picked up the distress signal from the Titanic from this location.
Cash Generator is a chain of pawn shops, it's headquartered in Bolton, Greater Manchester (which is 226 miles north-west of here according to Google!!).
They also (as far as I know) do so-called "payday" loans.

Here's an ad for the model 10A laboratory signal generator from the October 1945 issue of Radio & Appliance Sales. Notice the old Toronto address for Stark before they moved to Ajax. Later on Stark produced another signal generator with the same model number but in a much more compact case.

Generator fitted Class 37 No 37038 will be the last in the fleet to carry the old style D.R.S Livery. It will be regarded as vulnerable with D.R.S. known to prefer the later examples which are Altenator fitted,and with more 37/4s coming on stream it seems unlikely that this machine will make it into "Compass" livery. Seen here at Preston with 37611 and just one flask in tow working 6K73 Sellafield- Crewe Coal Sidings it;s eventual destination being Bridgewater.
One of the old steam generators which served the Prairie Island Nuclear Plant faithfully for 40 years is removed from the plant.

Because of frequent and unpredictable power outages, every factory in India must have their own power generator.
This one is made from a diesel truck engine (probably a TATA) , converted into a static electric generator.

This bicycle generator (dynamo) I own for several years now and I have never seen a similar one.
Who knows it's age and how rare is it ?
ODM Generator Coach ADE321047 is seen at Rothley, on January 25th 2025.
It was originally built at York as a Diagram 36 RFO, numbered E3. LOT number 30012. It entered service in May 1951.
Withdrawal came in December 1962. It was converted to a Generator Coach for the Out Door Machinery Department in1964, and was unusually renumbered ADE321047 in the Eastern Region number series. When used in her later role, it was to provide electrical power to the Signal &
Telegraph Department.
I hope you enjoy looking through my Flickr images. Please consider helping me pay for my Flickr subscription, and to replace my scanner with something that'll produce better images from the past.
I'd like to rescan all of my older uploads in the fullness of time.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Two new steam generators are delivered by rail to the Davis-Besse Power Station in Oak Harbor, Ohio, for installation in spring 2014

On a tour of Hoover Dam on the Colorado River on the Arizona-Nevada border, a guide led us to an elevator that took us 500 feet (150 m) down into the wall of Black Canyon. Then we walked down a long tunnel drilled through rock and saw these huge hydroelectric generators. They were in this 650-foot long room on the Nevada side of the dam. (The Arizona side has something similar.) The generators are turned by the force of river water running through huge pipes near the base of the dam, which at that point is 660 feet (200 m) thick.
