Hi good pals I'm having a problem with my 240 500watts AC generator. The output goes to abt 270v with no load but drops to 60v with just a

14'' tv and a VCR connected. How do I about this problem? BTW the excitation section was faulty so I just rectified the AC (not the main output) and fed it back to excitation coil. Is there a special way for excitaing generators?

Yes there is. You need a regulation unit. Without a regulator, the generator is useless.
