A shunt generator is a type of direct current (DC) electrical generator where the field windings are connected in parallel (or "shunt") with the armature windings. This configuration allows the generator to maintain a relatively constant voltage output, even as the load changes. ### Key Features of Shunt Generators: 1. **Field Winding**: The field winding is connected parallel to the armature (hence the name "shunt").
