How do magnets generate electricity? Every power plant, from coal to wind, works on the same principle: moving a conductor through a magnetic field induces current. Generators spin coils of wire inside strong magnets, producing electricity on a massive scale. This discovery, made by Michael Faraday in 1831, became the foundation of modern civilization. Every time you plug in a device, you're tapping into a simple magnetic trick turned into global infrastructure. | Electricalgram
